Step 4Simplifying the image
We need to simplify the image now. We will do this by Colorify-ing the image. There are two ways of doing this in GIMP.
a.One way is to go to (Tools>Color Tools>Colorize). If you use this method, you will want to set the Hue and Saturation to 0, and adjust the lightness to fit the image (this can be done to taste, generally you want about an even light to dark for a stencil.)
b. The other (and redundant) method is to go to Filters>Colors>Colorify, and select your color (you'll be selecting white).
Both methods are pictured, I chose to use the filter.
