I was sitting in my bedroom watching Twin Peaks, when I started to get bored with the show (if you’ve never seen it, it can be really slow at times.) The idea came to me that I should tape a piece of yupo paper to the monitor and roughly trace the figures as they popped on screen. This was a really fun exercise, the things on the screen moved way faster than I thought they were moving, which made it more challenging that anticipated: but nevertheless I had fun doing it. The resulting image was a bunch of overlapping lines and colors. (I tried to keep the color scheme primary colors plus green.)

After that, I took a piece of vellum and did the same exact thing. On the other side of the vellum: I drew a little self portrait based off an old photo of mine. I glued the vellum to the yupo paper, which made it kinda wrinkly– but I like the texture honestly,, happy mistake. I then trimmed the paper on all sides to give it a cohesive look.

Overall, it’s definitely not one of the best things I made, but I’m happy with it and I had a lot of fun experimenting with transparent paper.
