Jessica Winfree (Cochina Transfers) works on her photo transfer mural in the evening of August 8, 2016 during the Freak Alley Gallery sixth annual mural event in downtown Boise, Idaho.

Her mural is a transfer of a photograph of Highway 79 in eastern Missouri. She took the photo while on a year and a half cross country road trip.

Her photo transfer process starts with one of her original photographs which she will invert, adjust, cut, print then glue face down with an acrylic gel medium. It is allowed to dry for a 24 hour period before water is applied to peel off the paper leaving the ink adhered to the gel medium. She usually sticks to black and white photographs but it can be done with color photographs as well.

Freak Alley Gallery's week long event provided an "art-in-motion" experience as it welcomed the public to watch artists work on their murals.
