This project was very complicated. We started off with a series of squares, inside each I could draw 25 lines. Then I scanned them all, and subsequently erased each tedious square outline. I took the line shapes into photoshop and layered them ontop of one another until I had five different designs that I liked. From there I printed each piece of the designs out. Then on each individual piece I brushed on a special acrylic coating, blew it dry with a hair dryer, brushed it on, and blew it dry, and so on and so forth until every little piece had 5 coats on it. As you can see with how many different pieces are in my project, this action in itself was extremely time consuming. Finally I scrubbed the paper off of the back of the new pieces, which would leave me with a clear base that had only the dark lines on it. That is when I placed the all onto the large papers in a design, and coated both sides to solidify my final project. My design was preplanned, as were many, in order to determine how many papers to print off originally. I can't even count how many hours I put into this project.
