Transfers

I use my sketchbook, copying sections or entire pages, and then alter the images using enlargement, reduction, whiteout, or Photoshop. The copies are then transferred using matt medium onto plywood blocks.  I paint under and over the transfers with acrylic paint to create blocks of color, emphasis, and interesting shapes.
