Conkers

This was a really promising and simple piece, but I used the second batch of transfer paints so had mixed which didn't turn out very well, the colours were wishy washy and patchy.

I used Bondaweb to attach the conkers to the backing fabric.

The conkers were screenprinted onto brown velvet using screenprinting inks with a linear overlay of puffbunder. This is deceptive. It screens like see through paint and doesn't look as thou it has worked. But add a heat gun and a rising agent in the paint is activated, creating a raised interesting surface with a new dimension.
