My idea for my project on manipulation is to manipulate something that already exists. I had an idea to take fashion magazine advertisements and screen print directly on top of them. I thought this would be interesting because I have done screen printing before but I always printed on plain white paper and this is an interesting twist. Here I have scanned in some of the magazine pages I would like to use. 

                 

Here are some of the ideas I have for screen printing on the magazine advertisements. These would run along the bottoms of the images, possibly screen printed in white. Or maybe each idea (people, or city) would be printed in a different color.
