My African Representation - I had a meter of gold organza, half a meter of a gold thicker fabric and two patterned scarfs to work with. I only brought a small quantity just to experiment with and see how my images turn out. If they turn out well I will buy more to make my images more realistic. The two models below are in the positions that represent the couple in the Arnolfini Portrait.
Here I had to use Adobe Photoshop as I did not think the costume through. I forgot to have his arms out and plus his jeans and trainers are showing, so I used the stamp tool on photo to repeat the patter of the scarf on top on to his jeans, I also used the stamp tool to back his trainers a similar colour to the background so they do not look as obvious.
The woman version turned out better as I thought through the costume more also I had my friend who is a fashion student help me out this time. The patterns do not clash as much in these images, I really like the style the fabrics are done. If all works well with my collage piece then I will buy more fabrics to style her up again.
