Program Director/Art Instructor Alma Wright led residents in the Artists Roundtable in an exciting new project: creating 3D photos on glass. She reports: “It is a very cool process where you glue your photo to the glass, then spray it with water and rub it off with your finger until you have a translucent image. Once that’s done, you can let your creative juices flow and come up with a background for your photo. The students were given the option to paint a background with watercolors, rip a page out of a magazine, or print an image or sentiment to add to the back of the photo.”
Alma also quoted famed photographer Ansel Adams: “You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” The artists at Magnolia@Highland certainly did a fine job making these distinctive photographs!
