Chinese Flutist
[Musical Melodies]
Artist: Anne Prince
Artist Anne Prince uses the Art Institute's glitter and glue on the reverse side of an acetate sheet.
She says, "Many people stamp whatever image they are working with directly on the acetate, but I find that does not work well for me as I am always smearing it."
Instead, Anne stamps the image on white paper, and then scans it into the computer. That way she has full control over the sizing and can make it whatever she sees fit for the project.
The green shading on the paper was produced by cheating with the computer coming into play again. Anne does all the glitter portions by hand, but she cites, "as I've been developing my technique, I found I needed a background that did not distract from the glitter part. So...using my "photo shop" program, I created the background paper. "
The same affect, however, can be achieved with oil sticks or chalk.
