Project #4

For my final project I wanted to use screen printing as my analog process and photography as my digital. I took an image of trees at night and then in Photoshop manipulated the images to look like optical illusions. I then hand drew a sphere optical illusion and burned these drawings onto screen printing screens. I then printed these images in layered patters on canvas. My main goal was to create multiple optical illusions within one.

There are a few things I would do differently the next time aground; I would like to rotate the canvas 90 degrees so that the tree patterns direction is horizontally with the earth rather than vertically. I also would like to print a bigger sphere optical illusion  directly in the middle and continue the lines out further on the canvas and have a few that continue to the ends. I have learned a lot from this project, especially when it comes to screen printing and photo editing and I am excited to continue working with these mediums.
