Photo Transfer Collage

Photo transfer - taking a page from a magazine and pressing it onto paper using a gel medium like substance to cause the image to stick and then altering the image using different medias to create your own artwork

- first i prepped my paper by using water color to stain it and then took the image i wanted to use and pressed it against the paper, let it dry, and scrubbed it off to get the photo to transfer to the paper
- next i used stencils and oil pastels to create a pattern and then i added more water color around the stencils
- i then painted around the photo to blend the edges so they were not as harsh and went in and added color and definition to the face in the photo with pastels
- finally i went in with more stencils and letters and pressed some designs on the page and added some acrylic paint
