Module 1 Chapter One - Collecting Colour

This is my fourth attempt at uploading images for this chapter and I am now ready to scream!
Organising Colour

Further additions to satisfy City & Guilds

'Descriptive words for surrounding colours'

'How do primary colours make you feel and what are the linking features between the six pictures?'
 A piece of bridal satin with a stitched grid of white polyester.  The transfer paint took 20 minutes to achieve this amount of colour (as have all the transfer painted satin I have used further on).  I followed the directions carefully, using cheap polyester 'bridal satin' then a warmish iron gradually increasing the heat to such an extent that the nappy liner sabiliser stuck to the satin.  I have found the transfer painted satin experiments extremely unsatisfactory and have tried several times to achieve a pleasing result to no avail.

I have been collecting pictures of lines and have bought a wonderful book of Manet paintings in preparation for future chapters.

There must be a better way of organising these pictures into some kind of gallery but haven't discovered it yet.
