these are the new images from the photographer i got back today. they are really great. i need some help though with titles. any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. did i mention that i need the titles fast, like yesterday.
this is the colourful version of the badges in my exhibition. all made with hand blown glass that is etched with magnetic backing.
this is the black and white version. i was thinking of simply calling them the "fruit and veg" range. what do you think?
this next image is the main piece of the exhibition, and i think will look great installed in the gallery, but i did find out today about the moire effect. what is the moire effect?
Moiré effect can produce interesting and beautiful geometric patterns. However, the phenomenon degrades the quality and resolution of graphic images. Problems occur when a screened image, such as is found in a newspaper, is directly photographed and then the photograph is reprinted in screened format. It can also occur when the image from a computer display is reproduced by photographic means and then rendered in a screened or dot-matrix format. The fine matrix of dots in the original image almost invariably conflicts with the matrix of dots in the reproduction. This generates a characteristic criss-cross pattern on the reproduced image.
or check out this site for an instant idea of the patterns we are talking about.
and why do i need to know about the moire effect? because my image is made up using a halftone screen, or small dots like a newspaper image is made of. When this image is photographed and then printed or viewed on a screen you will see a small pattern that is not in the real piece but appears on the screen. in this work it kind of looks like a plaid pattern.
while it is not a disaster, it is something to consider in the future. i think i will need to use an irregular pattern next time, so this problem is not encountered.
you can really see the moire effect in the image above, on the arm, but hopefully it is not too distracting from the over all piece.

for your badges "from the garden"
how about "time to harvest" for the mural
hi, the images turned out great. i like 'harvest' and that moire effect thingy reminds me of a salvador dali painting -'lincoln in dali vision' where up close its an image of different things and from far away its an image of lincoln. really cool!
salad? picnic? I like harvest for the mural:)
