LOVE the first one you painted over. you have this open and innocent laisse fare (sp?) approach,silly girl with such talent and experience in the photographic world. Rock on!
@@NitsaCreativeStudio I wish I could show you an image transfer piece that I did about 2 months ago. I don’t know if I’ll ever do better. Occasionally, rarely everything just comes together in ways that you could never consciously design. I’m going to try your method of preparing the transfer surface with acrylic paint.
You can send it to me on Instagram @Nitsacreativestudio it's true that sometimes things fall into place better than other times, but also the more you do it, the more it works
Love these, they look so great! I think it would be fun to try to paint the big image, but may I suggest you put down a medium first and let it dry? If you do that and start painting and don't like it you can wipe the paint off while it is still wet. Gives you a chance to change your mind! I do it on my pieces all the time :) Thanks for sharing!
@@NitsaCreativeStudio I most often use matte medium because I figure I can always use a gloss later at the end. Either gloss or matte should work, though. A lot of my art is started as collage so I cover it with matte medium to protect the papers before I begin painting. Hope it works for you- like I'd said it does make it more fun because you can wipe things off if you don't like what the paint is doing. :)
The painting you did on the "mission impossible" was a great save! 😁 Also, the print you are asking about should you paint or not....I say no it looks perfect, but if you decide to...just a very small amount of paint.
@@NitsaCreativeStudioYou are very welcome! I often overdo it on my paintings and drawings also! Sometimes we just have to stop and wait until later before we go forward. I have gotten better at it!! One artist I love to watch on RUclips is Gaynor Pattle, I think you would love her too! You two are my go too people for enjoying a video.😊
@@NitsaCreativeStudio I used to dark of colors, but it did transfer. Learned a lot the first time and looking forward to doing the next one. Thank you!
No, don't paint it, it looks so great the way it is. Maybe you could make a second one and paint that? Thanks for telling us about your printers. I've been praying for one, maybe I'll find one at a garage sale, too :). Thanks for a great video :)
Thank you! 🌷🥰 I'm also leaning toward not painting it (for a change! 😅) I'm actually thinking that for the next video I'll make two similar transfers and then paint one and not the other and see which one I like better. And as for the laser printer, you can also find them at thrift stores for a very low price. They will even let you test them before you buy.
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Oh wow - thanks - I will check this out - buy your book, like, tick (already subbed) and generally give this the all round massive thumbs up - love your work - take care
I understand wanting to enhance your prints. But, the beauty of the black and white photo stands out more to me, without painting over it, since the photo is the main focus of the transfer. You are the Artist though, so do what feels right for you. 😊 I just see it from a different perspective, I guess. 😊
I definitely agree with the beauty of a plain black & white photo which I still love very much. On the other hand, these days I'm trying to take my photography in another direction, something new and exciting to try. Thank you Mae 🌞🥰🌷
I'm not crazy about the heavy pastel-ly colors with all the black... so I say paint it. Have you tried printing the images in different colors and transferring them? Could see printing in navy and using coral and yellow on the background... or printing a nature scene in a mid tone green and putting on a light pastel background... wonder if it would work or if the paint would shift the color of the print
It can definitely work! If you print color using a laser printer than the paint won't shift the colors but if you're using a inkjet, the ink might smear. So its a good idea to protect the transfer with fixative. Thank you for this Jenny 🥰
Soft body paints have a somewhat thinner consistency than heavy body acrylics. They are smooth and easy to blend and layer. Basically, they are the middle ground paint between fluid and heavy body.

You're right, I think it helps me trying new and unusual things because I don't have any training. Thank you soooo much for your kind words molly! 🥰🌷
@@NitsaCreativeStudio no training?! Coulda fooled me!
Thank you! That's very sweet of you 🥰🌷🌞
It’s good. I like the impressionist look.
Sweet! Thank you Scott 🌞🌷

You are genuinely the sweetest person on You tube! I love your work - your videos and your very unique authentic style . ☺️
I really like the way it turned out. Painting looks like fun so I understand not being able to decide. It will look great either way.
Sweet! thank you so much for this April 🥰
I think not to paint but if you did you will surely make it awesome 🤩
Sweet! Thank you so much sky 🥰
Thank you! I have learned so much from your videos. ❤
Beautiful, Nitsa. Genius. X
Thank you so much Pamela! 🌞🥰

Great idea!! What medium is best to use for this?

"I found it on the street" 😅 that's cool Nitsa! You made it work for you
For sure!!
Paint or not, I love both ! 😊
Thank you Sylvie 🌷🌞
Thanks for another great video. Just bought your new book via Amazon. Bought the old one as e-book but somehow prefer physical version. Keep going!
Awesome, thank you so much Stefanie! I also prefer "real" books 🌞
I like it.
Thank you Elinor 🥰
Love it
🥰
Very Nice 💞
Thank you Renee 🥰

Sounds good! I do tend to over do it with paint sometimes 😅 thank you so much for this 🥰

Thank you so much, I will check out Gaynor's channel right now!
It’s nice and clear no need for xtra paint… it’s such fun technique. 🎉
Sounds good! Thank you Reni 🥰
It looks great the way it is! But you are the artist so you do you 😊
Thank you so much Terry 🌞🌷🥰
‘M so excited o ry is technique out. I have an inkjet printer and hope it does transfer ok. Thank you❤
It should work with a standard dye inkjet printer 👍
@@NitsaCreativeStudio I used to dark of colors, but it did transfer. Learned a lot the first time and looking forward to doing the next one. Thank you!

@@NitsaCreativeStudio Good idea, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do :). Thanks for the tip on the printer. xx
Love it leave it
Sounds good! Thank you Rese🌞🌷
@@NitsaCreativeStudio you're welcome!
Hey Nina Quick Q - can you use the acrylic transfer process on glass?
Actually yes, check out this video to see how it works: ruclips.net/video/Ri9Pkj1Vcis/видео.html

10:23 I agree totally with the comment that your painting of your transfer reminded me of Van Gogh!
I can totally see that. Thank you Suzanne 🌷🌞🥰

Doing. A second one and I muddied my first one up….tomorrow I will wet it and see what shows up❤😊
Yes that also happened to me, so I wipe/clean the brush when changing colors. Keep me updated how it worked 🤞
@@NitsaCreativeStudio well I think that I didn’t let it dry enough, so I’m on number three and having fun experimenting ❤️
Experimenting is always so much fun for me!! Good luck!
What is soft body paint?
Soft body paints have a somewhat thinner consistency than heavy body acrylics. They are smooth and easy to blend and layer. Basically, they are the middle ground paint between fluid and heavy body.
Can you do this with our a laser printer
Yes you can also use an inkjet printer for this process (although not the pigment based one)
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Thanks
