Image transfer on MDF wood
This time .I’ve done the two same picture but different tone image transfer. It is the first time i do the image transfer, so i wanna to use this way to see which kind of tone is more work in this process. I think these two pics seems good in both tone.
I create the work on the MDF wood with the Matte medium gel. I painted the gel on the paper which images are laser printed and glued them on the MDF wood. After 24 hours, i wiped out the paper.
I think the worked part is the final image on the wood is pretty good, and the pictures are clearly on the wood. All items and colour in the paper shows pretty good on the wood. However, the part which not worked is when i wiping out the paper, i wiped it too hard. And the pictures broken because of that, some parts of pictures are wiped off. I think this part is really hard, and you need to pay attention to do this. Because the paper is too soft. When it is wet, it is easy to broken. If i do this process next time, i will take care of this part, and do it gently. And another part did not work well is because the paper need to be wiped out several times. However, it still will left some white part on the image. I think i need to wipe out it more several times.
I think both of aesthetically and conceptually images will work on this process.Personally, I love the vintage color tone image ( just like my second work). I think this kind of image work pretty good on the process,
Image transfer – “Life As Flower”
Life As Flowers
“Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.”
——— Rabindranath Tagore
I love flowers very much and i also like shooting the flowers use long-lens camera, because the close-up photography can see some parts of flowers’ details that people can’t see with their eyes. It is really exciting for a photographer to share something which can not normally see in daily with other people.
Recently, l learned the photo process “image transfer”. I think it is really interesting. So i did some and put them on the wall. I really love them!!!
