t STAGE TWO
Further washes were
added with a greater
range of colours. Acrylic
spray paints were added
to give further textural
and layered efects that
were important to this
expressive paintingp STAGE THREE
With all the initial washes and paint
applications dry I selected some
photocopied prints to add to the
painting. Generous amounts of
Amsterdam Photo Transfer Gel were
applied to the entire printed area
of the copy. I was careful to remove
any air pockets so that the image
transferred evenly to the paper as a
right-reading print. I used a printer’s
roller for this, being mindful not to
move it
p STAGE FOUR
After a full 24 hours the unwanted paper was removed with a damp
sponge and lukewarm water using gentle and regular rubbing to
reveal the print on the surfaceu STAGE FIVE
With the irst print in place I began to
increase the colour and tones in the
painting to match the intensity, using
Royal Talens acrylic spray paints with
diferent spray caps to create diferent
efects
