Watercolor Printing Process

      This began with a simple photoshop project, my challenge #1 man. I printed him out onto normal paper with white borders around the edges. I then took water color paper and water colors and went at it!
       First, I got the paper completely wet, not a dry spot to be seen. Then, I added blue color paint across the entirety of the sheet. I added the pink paint on the corners to make the blue pop out. I also added the pink lines in the middle, but I regret that in all honesty. The paper dried and I started with the transformation process. I covered the back of the photoshop folder with mod podge and made sure the layer was thick. I dropped the photo down on the middle of the heavy paper and pressed down with my hands and the squeegee to work out any bubbles.
      Now that the everything was set, it was time to wait for it to transfer. A few days later, it had dried but it still had paper fuzz on it. I had to take all of the paper off with my fingers, being careful not to scratch the page. It didn't turn out amazing, but I don't think it's awful either! My teacher took it home and covered it with a clear coating to keep it fresh, and now it's done! It was a fun process and I've never done anything like it before. I wish I would've spent more time evening out the mod podge because it didn't transfer over exactly how I wanted to. I also wouldn't have added the pink lines, but I do like the colors together, especially the pink in the corner.
