Harley Quinn

I went to a local comic book store and picked up  Harley Quinn invades Comic-Con International: San Diego issue #1. Inside was an advertisement and this image was it. I loved the tongue-in-cheek humor and figure I'd try it out. This time I chose to try to put it on canvas. Also, It's easier to glue comic book paper on top of wood and/or canvas than transfer it because it is thicker and usually doubled-sided, you the image hardly comes out as clear as it would if it was on computer paper.



I cut out the image from the advertisement and figured out where I wanted the place of the words/image and little trickets I decided to use. 



I visualized an explosive/dirty background with that retro pop look. So I chose little gears and this bold look for the background.
I covered the final product with Mod Podge Gloss glue which personally, I would take back if I could because I didn't like how super shiny the comic book paper came out. Comic paper is already shiny so maybe Mod Podge Matte would've been better. I've yet to use that as well so who knows lol.









Figured I'd put some staple catch phrase on the sides lol.
