Fake Watercolor

Filed under: the artist in us — admin @ 12:26 am
  • The original watercolor was photographed in black and white.1973 watercolor B&W1972 neg-film marker watercolor
  • Developed over 8×10 negative film which means that what was black on the paper became transparent and what was white became black.
  • Felt tip marker colors were added to the back of the film occasionally blending the colors with the fingers.
  • The original watercolor paper texture is visible but the colors are not watercolors.
