Mine didn't work :( i used gel impasto medium ( which works with wood print transfer ) I used a acetate photograph, does the acetate print need to be wet ? The gel medium didnt grab the ink the acetate grabbed the paper lol
hello, I am doing a project that I would like to do image transfer on. Do think this technique will work on wood painted with acrylic? So essentially, would the image stick to acrylic? The acrylic has taken very well to the (gesso-ed) wood, but there is still that wood texture. Thank you =D
we did gel medium transfers in my art class too but in a different way. we found magazine images that we liked and then put the gel medium over it (about 5~10 layers). after that we waited for it to dry and let it soak in water. then we scrubbed off the back (the side w/o gel medium) with our fingers. and all youre left with is the image on the gel medium! :]
and we sewed the images on fabric to create a sort of self portrait. it was fun, maybe you can try it
i enjoyed watching ur tutorial!btw i'm frm kuala lumpur,malaysia and was wondering what kind brand of gel medium u r using to transferred the image?i find it very difficult to search at any art supplier shop at my hometown.
love this! I have a photo of a crow sitting up on top of a 400 year old church spire from a cemetary in England....he stayed there just long enough for me to snap the photo and he was gone! But I just love the effect!
thanks so much for the demo! i recently purchased a canvas & some gel medium to make a friends birthday present. only problem was, as soon as i got home i forgot the instructions! your video demo really helped!!
Hello there :) I have an inkjet printer, so I made sure that I bought transparancy sheets made for that - I have used 2 or 3 different brands & they all worked pretty well. You can find them at most office supply stores. I haven't tried doing this using images printed on a laser printer, so I'm not sure how that works. I hope that helps :)
Thanks so much for your question! I am using transparency sheets specifically for inkjet printers which I printed on my Epson printer at home :) Hope that helps!
I enjoyed the tutorial so much. Isn't You Tube awesome? We can share our techniques and finished projects with each other from all over the world. We don't have to wait for craft shows on satellite or the rare art show on PBS. At last, visual artists have their own spot. It's better than a tree house.

Thank you for showing me this method of transfer!
I've used it to transfer a couple of photos on to canvas boards, took a few experiments but it works great

@nexxusrequiem You can do this on painted wood - you may still end up with a little bit of grain :) Have fun!

Thanks for that demo - definitely have to try that one. I like the effect of the pieces that did not transfer as well, that totally adds to it.
