Final transfers for the Luci!











Here are how the transfers for the Luciernaga finally turned out.  I wish that I had time to do more, and to do them better.  I'll continue to work on them in Tennessee - I want them bigger, I want them nicer, and I want more of them.  I know these are rough, and honestly, I'm only happy with them for the lessons that I learned in doing them.  They're not bad considering where I started from (only a vague notion of how to do the process, language and cultural barriers, not really having a workspace, being limited by available print and canvas sizes), but now it's time to take the process and the photos a bit further and do something that I can be proud of.

That being said, I've worked my ass off since July on these things, and I don't know how many I had to re-do.  But I've learned, and each one became better than the last, until I did the last 4 in a hurry (if every day was the day before a deadline, I would rule the world.  Unfortunately, I have no motivation every other day of the week).  But typical to how I work, I have some really good ones, and I have some well, not really good ones.

But everyone at the Luci was pleased with them (except the one of Victor "Oreja," they told me to take it back because they kicked him out for stealing the director's cell phone).  And I'm optimistic.  I love these guys - I want to do them the justice that they deserve and create something beautiful for them.
