preparing the print

I love print, and part of the prep, I took one of the photos and used photoshop to separate the colour and also the ribbon from the tree and then pixalated both the images ready to be exposed.

first layer of bark drying on the rack :)

practice runs of the ribbon to go on top of the bark.

I hope to do 4 layers for the bark to get a good texture and then have the ribbon going across. I may also do a version with a ribbon going across.
