I have a beautiful photograph of my nephew holding his first child and I wanted to make something special with it. A canvas, gel medium and a print later, I'm having to wait 24 hours for it to dry. I'm both impatient and apprehensive because transferring photos to canvas is not my forte. But I had to try. If it doesn't work, I'll paint over it. If it does, I'll be very, very happy.
