Right back to processing my final designs

The idea of Coda Trace
Rather than just get my imagery printed directly from my designs and put straight onto a screen I decided to use the technique of coda trace. I wasn't originally familiar with this tecnique of print, so I found it interesting nad quite informative. I lliterally traced around imagery and then painted it onto the matte side using acrylic paint. I used the lightbox aswell in order to assure it was all completly opaque. Apparantley coda trace is the best tecnique to use when  putting imagery onto a screen, as you get a sharper image. This then gets put onto a screen, the same way as using the acetate, (which is originally what I would do), creating a negative of my image.
