Japaints presents...
"An Art Form to Transform" in collaboration with Constant Clothing.
Way back in March, Craig McKinnon and Constant Clothing approached me with an interesting offer. They were making a run of creative T-shirts with the concept of "Artists Who Climb, Climbers Who Create." Finding the project to be of an interesting and fitting nature, I decided to do some brainstorming and researching of new painting techniques. I found a method of transferring images through paint that was being used by scrapbook makers and used it as a jump off point for the work I would be making. Working with this Xerox transfer method in combination with Acrylic paint, I would make a piece of art that could be transformed into a T-shirt! Voila!
Here is a time lapse video of the process, and a brief explanation for the series. A BIG shout out goes to Craig McKinnon for the offer to participate, and Nicholas Wray, who shot the film.
