First attempt Tumeric print


Made and emulsion from 91% alcohol and another with old Smirnoff vodka,
The 91% created an emulsion almost instantly. In contrast the old Smirnoff took a lot longer. So long I thought it wasn’t going to work.

emulsion application

Painted one Bristol with a light touch one coat. And painted the other paper with more care and coverage.

The emulsion application technique was less than ideal. I didn’t put enough emulsion on and I did no take care as to how I applied the emulsion.
