Art Experiment (I don't have numbers for these, it's whatever I feel like doing at the time.)

I am trying to make transfers of my photos onto different substrates (papers mainly) using DASS transparency film. DASS transparency film is a special manufactured transparency that is designed to be fed through an inkjet printer. The film is coated with a very thin layer of gelatin. The film was created by the Digital Artists Artieler and is available for purchase at Digital Art Studios Seminar. The medium used to transfer the printed image off the plastic transparency and onto the paper was Purell gel hand santizer, although any alcohol based hand santizer will do, but just plain gel hand santizer. You cannot use the hand santizer with emolients and moisturizers added. It will gum up the process.

The first one is a transfer onto Lokta paper using this technique. Lotka paper is a handmade paper from Nepal, that is made from a tree that grows in the Himalyas. It is very light, fiberous and durable, similar to Mulberry paper and other rice papers.
