Creating maple leaf art on wood panel

Flip the image of the maple leaf line drawing horizontally (in image editing software) to create a mirror image.   Output the image using a laser printer.   Tape the printout to wood panel.   Apply acetone (nail polish remover) to the back of the printout, and use a spoon to rub and transfer dissolved toner onto the wood panel.  Make sure there is good air ventilation.



Apply several layers of acrylic medium to seal the wood, and create a nice smooth painting surface.  Paint with Acryl Gouache.

Colouring a Maple Leaf Drawing with Pigment Ink Brush Pens

The maple leaf line drawing was first printed from a laser printer, then transferred onto a 5 x 7 inches blank greeting card (printmaking paper) using nail polish remover (acetone). Colouring was done in brush pens containing pigment ink (Faber Castell PITT artist pens). After drying, the ink is no longer water soluble, allowing additional ink layers be added. While the ink was still wet, a tiny brush with clean water was used to create gradation effect. The finished colouring card is placed inside an Ikea photo frame (GUNNABO).
