Techniques! I love em.

I feel in love with Polaroid transfers years ago. My first one was similar to the one above. I was an experimentor sometime ago. Once someone brought something to my attention I was on it. "Have you ever shot slides?" Off I went to Penn Camera to get slide film and spend more money. I picked up the film then set up a date with my friend Andrea and shot. Some years later I fell into a Polaroid transfer workshop and the same slides I shot of Andrea were the ones I used for my Polaroid transfers. She had made a ring from a flower and turned to face the sun and I caught her in that instance and that was the image that I transfered. I love techniques that allow you to be hands - on. The end result is a renewed piece of artwork that has a life of it's own. It is rustic in a lot of ways in that it looks weathered and worn. It is an exciting process that gives me a sense of fullfillment because of the process itself. Check it out for yourself and create!
