I created another one… I’ll continue to explore this technique.

H5N1 or Bird Flu

I got the image transfer technique from IMT… thanks!

Here is the original photo I used to created the work… The concept came about because when I was taking this shot I was so paranoid all I could think of was “Bird Flu”. I was getting too close to the swan…

I modified the photo in photoshop, added “H5N1″ then flip the image horizontally (which I forgot to do the first time I printed…)

After I did the image transfer… I added more color using gouache…
