I'm trying a variety of products in an attempt to both age an ink jet image and to make it look "misty".
I am drawn to the look produced using encaustic wax, but the health hazards make me cautious about heating wax without effective ventilation.
Anyone interested in using cold wax might like to look at oilandwax.ning.com/ for helpful advice.
My objective is to use images that look as though they are memories of the past and I have to say that everything I have tried so far is a disapointment.
I hope to look into using resin next.

Still need to figure out how to illustrate the string going up over the pulley and down around the axle...
Yesterday I was home alone and listened to my audiobook, as I pieced this together - it is odd and uneven and and strange and totally without a theme and it sort of just happened...
well, at least it is colourful! :-)
I don't know if it is going to be a baby blanket again; I might chop it up into strips and sew them together with some other fabric... maybe I'll just keep this one going without a plan whatsoever.... it will turn into something at some point, I guess?!

I'm hoping to work on this one a bit more today - upload photos of it this evening. I'd much rather paint than sleep.
WORK IN PROGRESS
8x8" Getting there on little Oscar. I am not following his colors exactly since I don't have his exact shade, so kind of doing my own thing.
Well, hotrodding ia about taking a car and buidling it up... You bring what you got to Saturday donuts and next week's work will show more when you get together again.
Still only about 1/2 way there - and a lot of clean-up to do now - but overall I'm rather pleased with the progress.
Ink jet prints treated with a variety of surface treatments.
I am trying to made these images look both aged and "misty" as though they were memories from the past.
The most effective so far are the ones I coated with Dorland's Wax Medium, although these needed a hot iron to make them effective.

Grease Alley, an industrial backwater neighborhood in a blade-runner/fifth-element genre. These shops back onto a trash and old parts-strewn gully, where the junk skiff comes by to pick up broken components, industrial leftovers, and the occasional "borrowed" part.
After changing out his spots and dark coloring under his nose I think 3 or 4 times, I am going to try to stay with this. Too bad they don't make speckled black/white glass. Onto the right side of head tomorrow.
