Alternative Process #1

Aperture: f5.6, Shutter Speed: 1/25

This week I was working with an alternative process of photography. I did a gel medium transfer. To complete this process I took a photo, printed it and made a photocopy of it (for the most possible concentrated ink.) After that, I taped it to a masonite board and began to layer gel medium over it, letting it dry in between each layer. After about 20 layers, I took it off the board and dipped it into a tub of water. I rubbed off all the paper with my fingers so that all that was left was a thick layer of gel medium with the image transferred onto it. My final product was a slightly transparent, thick image with an interesting tint in it (likely from the yellow and blue paint residue that was on the paint brush I was using.) I'm very happy with it!
