HK1025545B - Process for producing 3d structurated pictures - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to a method for producing textured coloured motifs and may be described as 3-D structural painting.

FR 1 288 514 A and FR 2 309 352 A describe methods for producing relief paintings in which the individual areas formed between raised ledges are painted with colour; DE 2 518 968 A describes a method in which the raised ledges of a relief painting are created by photo-networking and the deepened areas between the ledges are filled with colour; the ledges may also be contrasted; GB 734 391 A describes a card with raised lines describing a motif, which is intended to help children to paint the motif by filling in the fields bounded by the lines.

The purpose of the invention is to develop a method by which a particular technique can be used to combine different styles, e.g. Impressionism and Expressionism, which can then be called 3-D structuralism (3-D structural image).

The invention thus relates to a method for producing 3-D structural images as described in claim 1.

In particular, the present invention describes a photographic medium: a) Preferably prepared by a basic preparation in a known manner.

Suitable media are, for example, fabrics such as a painting cloth, linen or cotton, then fabrics or also wood, paper, cardboard, stone, clay (raw or burnt), metal, porcelain, etc.

This gives a basic image carrier (b) which prevents the absorption of colour on the carrier (a) but it is also possible to use a basic image carrier (b) from the outset.

The untreated or thus pre-treated, preferably white-grounded, image carrier b) can then be provided with a fully or partially objective image, or with a non-objective abstract motif. This is done e.g. by means of chalk, coal, pencil, etc. This image can be, for example, an architectural representation, but also any other fully or partially objective or abstract representation.

(c) a structural mass is applied to the object in whole or in part in such a way that the basic structures of the image are applied or split up using the object.

The structural material is e.g. a spatula, such as a structural paste or acrylic resin or plaster or clay, or in the case of metal as a support for the image, soldering lead or similar, etc. The order is made either by hand or by means of a tool, e.g. scraper, spatula, knife, brush, etc. or directly with the tube.

The result is a three-dimensional structure with recesses and especially corresponding edge elevations. During the process, however, new motifs can also be used, in addition to the preliminary drawing, in a free choice.

This results in a semi-objective painting (d) which not only has a plastic, relief-like, 3-D structural effect but also causes the image to be alienated and abstract.

It is important to always recreate the edge lines of the motif by means of the structural mass, so that shapes, elevations and recesses are obtained.

The chosen structures create the spatial, three-dimensional effect.

The borders that border the individual parts of the motif form heights and depths and are thus important for the further treatment of the image.

The abstraction of the subject image produces an impressive effect.

The next step is to apply colour, preferably in combination with pigments, to the image, ensuring that the colour or pigment adheres well to the untreated or grounded/treated image medium and to the structural mass and that the various colours and pigments applied are at least partially mixed.

The colours used are usually poured with the appropriate diluent/solvent, diluted, peeled off to allow them to mix well.

The colour or pigments are applied by casting, bending or extrusion.

The colour applied is, for example, an oil paint, an artificial resin paint, an acrylic paint or a dispersion paint.

The choice of different colors that flow and merge creates expressive images that are effective in themselves.

Additional colouring or solvents, pigments or water or diluents can be applied to achieve further structures and estrangements.

The colour or colour mixture accumulates in the deeper parts of the applied structure to form a thicker, more concentrated and therefore darker and brighter colour scheme and forms a thinner colour scheme on the elevated structural sites from which the colour flows accordingly.

The structure on the image carrier is combined with the structure in 3D.

The top layer of painting is preferably applied in the style of abstract expressionism. Other styles are also possible. Below this top layer of painting is the structure, which is perceived as an independent motif.

Further effects can be achieved by the selective use of additional techniques or by repeating the same technique, the application of paint sprays, the use of different solvents, direct spraying or mixing of pigments.

The final treatment may be a transparent or slightly coloured film coating which serves as UV protection but can also lead to a matte or glossy image.

The result is an expressive, impressionistic, partly abstract, three-dimensional, realistically-appearing work of art, which can be described as a 3-D structural image (e).

It was not foreseeable that this novel technique of ordering the structural mass in combination with the color order applied to it would achieve an effect that makes the depicted image appear three-dimensional with depth effect, which offer the viewer on the one hand magnificent color compositions, but on the other hand also objective to abstract structures. The composition of the color is able to evoke varying moods when viewed. While e.g. yellow, blue and red signal clear states, mixed colors leave room on both sides. Color and form have a proper dynamic. Through the color the structure can be experienced or color can be considered as a composition alone.

In the schematic representation illustrating the invention as a construction method using a detailed image medium, the following meanings shall be used: 1) an untreated image medium which is (2) treated with a basic agent, (3) the layer of substrate, and (4) illustrates the subject (pre-print or sketch).5) The structural mass lies directly on the subject (4).6) Illustrates the colour layer, and (7) the transparent or faintly coloured final finish, if appropriate.

Layers 1 to 4 correspond to the image carrier treated and layers 1 to 7 give the 3D structure image. Figure B shows an image on which an untreated image carrier has been treated with a basic agent followed by sub-painting and pre-painting (steps 1 to 4 of the schematic representation) Figure B shows an image on which, in addition to the image in Figure A, the structural mass has been applied (steps 1 to 5 of the schematic representation)

Claims (5)

1. A production process for 3-D structural images, wherein a sketch or diagram (4) is applied onto an untreated or treated picture carrier and a structural mass (5) is applied thereon and color is applied thereupon by means of shaking, rinsing and/or skimming technique, whereby the design of the color application is implemented by using mechanical/technical means and the corresponding color coating is applied by use of different colors, the applied different colors mix and the color mix collects in the recessed parts of the applied structure to form a thicker, concentrated and thereby darker and brighter color coating (6), and forms a thinner color coating on the embossed structural portions from which the color flows off.
2. Process as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that further structures and alienation effects are achieved by the application of further colorants or solvents, pigments or water or diluting agents.
3. Process as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the motifs applied onto the untreated or treated picture carrier and the structures of the structural mass also permit retouching, e.g. painting over or additional stopping and can additionally be finished by this process.
4. Process as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that as a finishing treatment a transparent or slightly tinted layer is applied, which can on the one hand serve as UV protection and which can also lead to a matt or brighter picture.
5. Process as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that additionally a single-colored or multi-colored undercoat is applied on which the sketch or diagram is then produced.
