Inspired by Donna's beautiful photo story, I used the new ArtsyTransfers Together and Artsy Transfers Glance on this old photo of my DH taken with an Instamatic for this week's aA lift.

Process: Inspired by the photo story on Donnas page, a story about my husband came to mind. First, I wrote my journaling. Then I began working with a photo from 1971, a 3.5x3.5 square taken with an Instamatic. Since the clarity wasnt great, I added filters to give it a more painted look. There are three copies of the photo, the first masks out all but the figure with the blending on multiply with a levels adjustment set on soft light at 75%. The second layer brings in more of the photo, also with blending mode soft light at 100%. There was actually light on the hills behind the hunter, bringing in layers from Artsy Transfers Glance 6 and 4 enhanced that light. I attached a copy of the photo to a paint layer from transfer4. I also used the texture layers included in transfer6. Next I placed a copy of the glow below the second copy my photo. I used transfer6 from ArtPlay Together below the photo layers along with a paint layer from ArtsyTransfers Together. I used the clone tool on the background paper (solid paper1) to lighten the texture on the left. I clipped a levels adjustment layer just above the paper on screen blend mode at 25%. Above that I placed some of the layers from artsy transfer Glance_2 along with an urban thread and some beads from ArtPlay Glance. Below the journaling, I used layers from Artsy Transfers Together, recoloring a couple of layers and reducing the opacity of the white paint. I added another thread and beads.
