Intentionally Imperfect Image Transfers with InkAid

Perfect isn't always ideal. Sometimes having crisp perfectly straight edges isn't the goal like when I'm adding an image onto a gel print. That's when I want those worn irregular aged looking edges and it's a snap to do with the InkAid image transfer process.

What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.

I bet it you have an area that you really don't want your transfer to go on, you could mask it off, either by cutting out a piece of paper, or just by tearing one, to keep that torn edge look, right? Question, though, can you clean off some of the transferese medium if it spreads out farther than you want it to when you brayer your image down -- can you lift up your image and clean a little off?
