I really want to try this technique! How did you do this? What sort of glue did you use to glue the tracing paper to the foamcore?
(I'm assuming you glued the paper down first?)

Hmmm, I have a satin medium, that would probably work too I guess
Do you crinkle the paper first or put it on flat?
Thanks for telling me your trade secrets!

It's actually really hard to get the tracing paper to lay flat on the wet adhesive XD It's so thin that it will want to stick all over the place. Just cover large sections of the foamcore with the matte (or satin) medium, and then start laying your pieces of paper on top. You don't have to fuss with it too much...part of the fun is seeing what kind of patterns and wrinkles form on their own!

This is amazing. It looks like there are pieces of drawing overlapping eachother
Very eye pleasing

Amazing. I am a high school art teacher and would love to do something like this with my AP studio kids. Would you be willing to email me the steps on how you created this and the texture? My email is wendykathleenart@juno.com
Much Thanks. You have a great talent.

Thanks! It was sort of an improvised experiment and done in a hurry, but I'm pleased with how it turned out
