Pixlr

Since I dont have photoshop at home I find it hard to edit samples and images with out it taking time out of my technical work. I have found a free app on my phone that allows my to edit photos in a similar way to photoshop. The app is Pixlr and lets me edit on the move, when ever where ever. By taking photos of samples I can adjust the brightness and contrast to develop a mix of different exposures. I can edit hue and saturation to explore colours, changes and similarities.  Also I am able to crop, rotate and double expose (if I feel like merging samples together)! A tip on ccreating these for your self.  By using a clean screen and fiber reactive procisoin mx Dyes, I placed different colour splodges Around The top base And dragged them tthrough using a squeegee. Be careful when mixing colours, they may change tones, keep opposite colours away as the outcome might not be expected!  For the overlay use acid dye, 18g of bright magenta and 10g of bright pink, add 100 ml of vinegar.   Put into a souce pan and allow to cook for 40 minutes to an hour.  After scrunch up clear silk viscose into a ball in the palm of your hand and slightly dip into pan (make sure you don't cover the whole fabric in dye as you wont get an acid wash style pattern) after leave to dry for a few hours and wash out!
