Brand X Do They Hurt 1980

A black and white print with minimal hand tinting. Transpaseal laid over the image then the skirt area cut and peeled away and kept . A maroon watered down photo dye used.  The exposed area is wetted with clean water and a large Sable brush, with the appropriate colour, is used to wash in the dye and blotted and repeated until the right tone is achieved. That area dried and the transpaseal replaced over the skirt. The same process is used on all the separate areas. Just a hint of colour applied to the crazy pathing.
