Image Transfer is a fascinating and playful method to combine and overlay images thereby creating “transparent collages”.

In this step-by-step 2-day workshop, you will explore the possibilities of Image Transfer. You will learn basic translucent and opaque transferring methods with acrylic media and other substances and how to transfer your images onto paper, textiles, canvas or MDF board.

In a relaxed atmosphere, we will focus and experiment with 2 to 3 transfer techniques which you will apply on different materials. I will guide you individually and give tips to develop your ideas and create intriguing personal images.

Image Transfer can be combined well with other techniques such as collage, drawing, painting and printmaking, some of which can be applied during the workshop. The possibilities with Image Transfer are endless.

All you need for this workshop is a playful approach and a desire to experiment!
