Failed experiment number two. I had the idea that perhaps, if I mixed fibres with paint, it might create an interesting texture to compliment the smooth lines and distressed prints in my work. I cut some wool fibres up and mixed them in with acrylic, and this was the result. I don't really like the sheen of the paint, it was also really hard to control the position of the fibres, meaning I needed to use extra paint to do so. I am not certain what the result would look like, if I were to blend white, grey and black. Perhaps it would be more pleasing. But for now I am moving onto another idea and shelving this one. I need a technique that I can easily control, as when working a blending finish onto a completed sculpture (that has taken a lot of time and effort) there really is very little room for error. #paintexperiment #textileexperiments #textiles #surfacetexture #ideas #ontothenextone #tryingsomethingnew #tryingoutideas #samples #sampling #artisticprocess #trialanderror https://www.instagram.com/p/CeJkGj-oYZk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
