After a recent series of conversations with a friend I began to appreciate fetish wear as more than just clothing but as the expressions of love and self worth that they are. I wanted to reflect that understanding in a respectful (and as a professional artist) hopefully saleable way.

These pieces are “finished” but represent a process of discovering how best to use the media together in a way which reflects (if you will forgive the pun) the image I have in my mind. As such, they vary slightly in style and finish as I was using them to develop a technique. I now feel I have that technique nailed but would welcome any feedback. Please excuse my poor photography!



The process was to design the image digitally from found images, then transfer onto board using an emulsion transfer process. After that I used high gloss paint and ultra matt emulsion with acrylic paint and gold and silver leaf. After preparing the images for transfer, every single stage and media was unknown to me!
