it's also referred to as Xerox or laser transfer. There are a few methods, one is using something like an gel acrylic medium, in multiple layers over the image, then rubbing away the paper leaving the image on the acrylic medium. I prefer using acetone to transfer the image onto the paper I'm using to collage with or directly onto the piece. You basically take a laser print out, or photocopy, place it face down onto the object/paper you want to transfer it to and the brush on acetone on the back and use something like a spoon to rub and transfer the image. The acetone is basically melting the toner and you are rubbing it from the original paper to something else. Only problem with using acetone is that you need to fumigate the room you're working in. I like the end results I can get with using the acetone method over using a gel acrylic mediumvvk wrote:Two color screen print on 12"x12" on hand painted and emulsion transfer collaged wood panel - signed on the back.
What is this "emulsion" I keep reading about in reference to art making? Is it hipster code for paint?
Here's some info on it:
