This throwback goes to September 2009, and makes me a little sad. I was fusing images into glass using fusible film printed with a laser printer. The film would burn off leaving the image in a sepia tone. The method only works with high iron oxide content toner, which of course is getting rare. I had to resource the transfer paper I was using twice, retesting each time the previous brand stopped making it. Then when I invested in a large stack of paper that worked, my printer died. I found a backup printer at a garage sale, but the print quality was poor. Investing in a printer that may or may not work was risky, and I wasn’t getting enough orders to justify the expense. So production stopped. The photo below is line art that I produced a batch of for my grandmother for a reunion. I also did portraits and sketches.

I was producing these from about 2009-2018.
