Robert Conover achieves a watercolor-like quality by working with the transfer before it has dried. Notes the artist about his technique, "The inexpensive Polaroid camera and its film offer a technique for the addition of a painterly quality to a photographic color print, simply by manipulating the emulsion, while soft, using a variety of tools."
