DIY Abstract Photo Art

Why choose to frame one photo when you can frame ‘em all, right?! More is more, friends. Well, at least, that’s what I was thinking when I assembled this abstract photo art. When I first tried to make it, let’s just say it was a major fail. Turns out there’s an actual technique behind the “abstract” look and I’m here to give you the how-to on making your own.

First you’ll wanna scour your photos and use your PIXMA MG7720 to print a few borderless, letter sized prints and you’re off to the races!
