The Image Transfer Technique You Don't Know: Citra Solv
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- See step by step how to do an image transfer using citra solv and magazine pages that are in color. Image transfer techniques are exciting because of their unpredictable results and the faded, antique look that the magazine pages are transformed into. This demo explains all of the materials you'll need, safety hazards (don't do this technique indoors!) as well as how you can continue to work on the transfer using soft pastels, charcoal, and wiping the pigment off the magazine pages with citra solv and a cotton rag. Demo by Art Prof Clara Lieu.

This is a nice format. It felt personal but edited to a good length.
Tysm for the feedback Lisa! I really want these studio tutorials to have the same personality of the live streams, but with waaaaaay better video quality, so glad that came across. -Prof Lieu
I loved learning the citrasolve transfer in my printmaking class. We would dampen cotton balls (q-tips for smaller pieces) with it and used as much force as we could to get the image transferred.
Yes! I remember doing it that way in school with the q-tips and cotton balls too! And everything smelled so zesty afterwards, haha. -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist
This is so educational. We can see that art is NOT engineering, we make mistakes, and we embrace those accidents to transform them into something meaningful.
btw, Clara is just adorable looking for stuff all the time :)
So true on all counts! - Mia, Art Prof Staff
As a collage artist this is RIGHT up my ally. Cannot wait to try this
We're so glad to hear that!!! Thanks for watching :) - Mia, Art Prof Staff
Sooo cool! I definitely need to try this! I think it’ll help me be ok with relinquishing control. Which is especially important for me, since I paint mainly with watercolors!
Hahaha yep! There is literally no control here 😂 -Prof Lieu
Thank you. This was very helpful
You're welcome! - Mia, Art Prof Staff
This is my kind of video. I can so relate to losing things, to putting things upside down. She is awesome and I am excited to try this.
We're so happy you enjoyed it!! Please give it a shot-- we bet you'll have a great time :D - Mia, Art Prof Staff
If you sprinkle over each page of a National Geographic, close the magazine and leave it for an hour or so when you open it up you will have pages and pages where inks have melded together to make beautiful abstract patterns and blobs while peeks of what was on the page still show. I did several but I did notice they fade over time even in a closed art journal tucked away in a box. Still, great to do and even photograph or scan and make your own papers with them.
That's so cool!! Editing photos like that is such a cool concept - Mia, Art Prof Staff
Dang ! This is so cool and different!! Thanks Clara !
I know, isn't it soooooo cool looking? So fun and addictive too. -Prof Lieu
The outtakes had me laughing! Hahah gotta find that shrimp! Lol
The things I do to make art!! 😂 -Prof Lieu
Aaaand this right here is why I love my random hoarding of odd stuff. I have about 300+ national geographics.
That sounds amazing!!! -Prof Lieu
While I just did a spring clean. Haha.
So excited to try this! 😍
Show us what you make!!! -Prof Lieu
Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you doing these transfer prints. Very very interesting and clever too. Something else to put on my to do list. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
To you as well! Thank you very much for watching with us :) - Mia, Art Prof Staff
Those are stunning!!!
I love it when there are multiple transfers in the same paper. It can be cool as a collage background!
Ooh totally! - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Share
Interesting technique. Made a note in my ideas notebook to try it out.
Go for it! - Mia, Art Prof Staff
It works great with old National Geographics, pre 1985 or so.
ooooooo the visuals in those old magazines are amazing! -Prof Lieu
Rubbing Alcohol the 90- 99% kind sprinkled between old NG pages and smoosh them together, melts the image into a cool abstract mess that is great for collaging with too
Every time Professor Lieu called the crawfish a shrimp, I cried a little bit.
Omg I’m so dumb!!!! 😂😂😂 -Prof Lieu
Wow, never knew about this!
This is a fairly obscure technique, I only discovered it a few years ago! -Prof Lieu
I love you art prof!
Nice. Looks really fun!
It's super fun! Have you seen the Gelli Plate transfer tutorial too? ruclips.net/video/WP6vtTS9kT4/видео.html -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist
I can't wait to try this! Thank you.
Omg it's soooooooo fun!! -Prof Lieu
This tutorial was made possible by a generous sponsor in our community!!! More info on how to sponsor an Art Prof video: artprof.org/learn/sponsor-a-video/ -Prof Lieu
Yay I love these studio tutorials!
Tysm!!! They’re a lot of work but worth it imo -Prof Lieu
@@artprof yes they're worth it ❤️
Hi Clara. Can you try limonene instead of citrusolve? I love throw out all your expectations!
I haven't tried it before, let us know if you do! -Prof Lieu
That’s so cool. What paper or papers can you put the transfers on thanks
I would recommend using printmaking paper, a good all purpose, printmaking paper would be Rives BFK, but I’m sure that any other durable paper would be fine. You just don’t want to use something like sketch, paper, or drawing paper, which is too thin. -Prof Lieu
You are so funny! 🙏❤️
What do you do with your transfers.
What if you used a hard brayer or a barren intead of the bone folder (no lines?)
They probably wouldn't get enough pressure to pull the image off, the bone folder is very rigid so you can get more of the image off. -Prof Lieu
Can you do these tramsfers on to faux leather?
Never tried, but I have had a more difficult time getting Citra Solv transfers to stick on some slicker surfaces. -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist
SO DANG COOL!
Right??? - Mia, Art Prof Staff
Could this be transferred into canvas?
I've never tried it, but it's possible that the canvas might too textured to hold enough of the citra solv transfer. Try it and see! -Prof Lieu
Is this archival? It seems to me that citrus would be acidic? I wanna try it but I’m mostly focused on producing archival works. Thanks!
I'm not sure, perhaps if you look up the info on the manufacturers site you could find out! -Prof Lieu
What can I use instead of Citrasolv. I'm from Europe and Citrasolv is hard to get here. Can I use some other cleaner brand ans what's the ingredient which makes the transfer possible?
Sorry I really don't know what's available in Europe! Perhaps look up the ingredients of Citrasolv and see if you can find a product with similar ingredients? -Prof Lieu
Is Citri-solve basically the same thing as Goo-Gone? An orange oil solvent?
Citra Solv isn't the same thing as Goo Gone, actually I think it's typically using for cleaning and degreasing, but it is a pretty awesome art supply too!! -Prof Lieu
@@artprof I'll have to give it a try then! :D
@@artprof Sadly, it does not work the same as Citra Solv 😞 But because it's oily, it does turn old book paper into something that looks like old parchment! But still has the problem of a strong smell, so I think I'll stick to mineral oil for that effect. Oh well! I just learned a new way to make my own image transfer sticker from a crafter: packing tape! Burnish over the image, soak in water to rub off most of the paper fibers, and then brush the shiny side with matte acrylic medium. Apply glue to the back and stick it! 😀
Any National geographic or only certain years?
If you don't have a bone folder handy, is there another tool you can use?
A stiff sheet of cardboard, a plastic scraper from a hardware store would work! (Not a metal one) -Prof Lieu
@@artprof thank you!
Acetone transfer next?
Good idea! -Lauryn, Art Prof Teaching Artist
so does your art smell like lemons afterwards?
Hahahaha yes it does! That's what my studio smells like rn. -Prof Lieu
Pierce it with a dowel.
You can get orange stuff at the dollar store..😉
Nice to see new product featured, but this one's results don't do much for me. The image is barely visible. I'd expect more from a product. Just seems like a lot of mess for little return.
I think it depends what your intentions are-- this might be perfect for a particular project, but I agree, I don't think it would be worth it on my end either! - Mia, Art Prof Staff
