Course Detail: C_IMAGETRANSFER - Image Transfer

This workshop is for artists who want to learn a variety of ways to transfer and enhance their images onto unique surfaces and substrates such as fine art papers, Japanese papers, metal, wood, books, blocks, fabric, collage, found objects, glass, and so much more.

The weekend course will explore the techniques and uses of several different kinds of transfers including emulsion transfers, solvent transfers, alcohol transfers, gelli plate transfers, and the enhancement of your transfers with traditional artist mediums such as watercolor, acrylic and colored pencils.

You will learn to transfer images from both photo copies and from ink jet printed transparency film.  Transfers can be used alone, or can be layered to create a montage effect or used with collage for a more complex layering effect.
