Bacon : Transfer Print

A transfer made at a workshop this past summer. My painting teacher from high school hosted it. It was a wonderful trip, my mother attended it as well. I haven't made a transfer print since then, but I intend to, it's quite a fun process.
I named it Bacon after Francis Bacon, who's work provided much inspiration for this piece.

Bacon - Chase Restrepo

-First the raw print was made with ink on pink card stock
-The print came out very dark, so I went back into it with oil pastel to bring out some of the details
-After that, I used a wet brush to dissolve some of the ink and brush it around to give it a smoother texture

Media: Ink, card stock, oil pastel, water
