Here's my first attempt at acrylic gel medium transfer. I took a 'blind-contour' sketch from my sketchbook and blew it up on the copy machine. Next, layered it with 3-5 coats of acrylic glossy gel medium and then rubbed the paper off the back and glued it, with more acrylic gel medium to a canvas. Then I painted color on top of that. Afterwards, most of the original black line drawing was covered up, so I re-stated them with a Sharpie (will that hold up over time?)Oh, this is my poor suffering husband, Darrell.
Here's another one on panel:
Darrell's grand-daughter, Victoria says upon seeing these for the first time, "Grandpa's eyes are not like that."I love this and had great fun doing it.
