Scanning a face


This is so exciting. My new scanner is up and running. I phoned Epson to make sure I was doing everything correctly. I was told to put a document on the scanner and click. This funny face is the result. My first new scan.

Yupo paper and Hobein Duo Aqua water soluble oils are probably the media. I found Yupo paper at Blicks art store, and water soluble oil paint are obviously fun for not needing turpentine. Hope the face doesn't scare you.

  1. You are a blond! Blonds aren't scary. Is this a new picture you scanned???

  2. Good for you for getting the scanner up and running! Love this! When was it painted? Not at all scary!

  3. Your work is always unusual, never dull. The expressions on your self-portraits are all different. So interesting! Just great!

  4. Googled Yupo paper & found fascinating info. Read about using watercolors & plastic wrap & rock salt. Thanks for introducing me once again to something new.
