new project

SO, after completely tossing aside my other intended project, I haphazardly attacked the internet with a vague idea in my hand. after I aquired several old timey photographs, which i feel are eerie enough, i decided i would use drips of black ink to push the creep factor to the top, and make this images seem uncomfortable and weird. I resized all the images and printed them out onto left over acetate from last semesters project. then armed with a blow pen i shot black ink all over a new square of acetate to strategically place etheral caustic looking black spatters and drips coming out of people's mouths, seeping from edges, and coming out of their backs like misshapen wings. Then, during a 2+hr session of scanning, i aquired all the images in their digital form, and in another 2+hr sesh, i manipulated colors and inverse images etc. Now i have a collection of over 20 images to finally crop choose and print.






great success
