The process begins with one of my original photographs The image is printed onto a special receiver sheet designed to hold the ink. Meanwhile, the wood surface undergoes a detailed preparation
Once the wood is ready, I apply an acrylic liquid solution. While the solution is still wet, I carefully lay the receiver sheet, image side down, onto the wood. This allows the ink to interact with the wet solution. After the appropriate waiting period, I peel the sheet away, leaving the encapsulated ink embedded in the acrylic on the wood surface. The piece is then left to cure and harden before receiving finishing coats
