So I took an image of a garden setting in Carmel a couple years ago. I printed it out and turned it into a photo transfer. Then when I was playing around with my new phone and the cartoon setting, I made another piece of artwork! Crazy!

Over the weekend I did whip out a couple more photo transfers from my Zen garden stash of images. They came out really great! One thing I noticed was that ink jet ink can sometimes look dull on water color paper especially some of the transfer images that I don't add water color to. So I headed to the art supply store and found a digital finish gloss clear protective coating to spray on them. Well, it did work in that it toned down the flatness and gave it more rich-looking colors. However, the smell was unbearable! Yikes, next time if I have to use it I'll spray outdoors!
The other task I performed was that I created a 'gallery' on my web page for the Photo Transfers. That's also when I found out my website was 'full'. I've been wanting to design a new website anyway, since I've had this one since 2001, but just haven't gotten around to it. I don't know if I really have the time for that right now, so I just deleted several of my old galleries to make room for the newer stuff. Pretty easy fix!!
