Your art makes me super happy!!
It's great to see another Australian artist on UA-cam! Thanks for making this video!!!
ha, ha, I just went out and picked up a few things today just to play around and experiment with. I thought I would first look on here to get some ideas, and one of the products I got was the exact same brand & size of "structure gel" that you have shown here! That is funny! Can't wait to try it now!!
Came out nice Gary! I've never tried transfer either hummmmmm i'll have to keep that in mind..... Thanks a bunch!
LOVE your video's!. I never had the opportunity to get into doing this before and you have opened a whole new world for me. I'm in Melb Australia and great to see such a talented Aussie sharing and helping others. I can't afford the lessons so this is a life saver. You've made one lady VERY happy. What goes around comes around.
Cheers:)
Love transfers.. you can also use gesso and acrylic paints that same way. Transfer on to fabric too. you can use inkjet print images with transpariencies without waiting for them to dry. Love it all. Thanks, Gary.
Thank you. I have always missed the one tip I picked up in your video, that of getting the page WET before laying it into the medium. Makes all the difference in the finished product. Thank you.
I think you can use matt medeium too Gary. If you can get oil of wintergreen it works as a transfer imagey thingy also. you put image down where you want it and rub over it with the oil to transfer. smells nice too like deep heat or dencorub.
oh my gosh i love sheba, i have a survior kitty too a calico name Dusty we rescued last winter :)
wow i love the transfer, i've been thinking of trying some of your techniques but they're so far away from what i normally do i've been afraid to try it but this one is so cool i might just have to :)
thanks and hugs

Aw that turned out fab i have some Golden molding paste Im wondering if its similar gonna give it a go thanks for the inspiration Garry.
The commision piece is fantastic.
half price books is a GREAT source for national geographic magazines. i've found so many amazing pics in that mag.
I love the idea of using the National Geographic magazines. Thanks for sharing your techniques :)
I can't wait to begin with this technique!
Thank you:)

Great videos, very inspiring.
Thanks Gar!
Hey Gary Reef - I just wanted to let ya know you saved my butt on a class project this week lol! I had no idea how to do this technique and you explained/showed it very well. Now I can finish my art project. Thanks for posting! :)
wow, it looks very good. I´ve try this with the struktur gel! And you have a beautiful cat!
Thanks for sharing!
i just got galeria structure gel because i could find the other one so i was so happy they had this one one i use it i let you know how it went
AWESOME!! Thanks so much for the demo!! Holly mother of all spiders!! That is the best!!
My teacher gave a demo with all these crazy toxic chemicals to transfer copy images that you can only use a certain printers.. But your demo was the awesomest one (there, I created a word too "Awesomest")
Thanks a whole bunch :D
Niiiice GOOD VIDEO!
great video! thanks so much! it's really fun to transfer.... but I dont know if it's because of the paper I used or because of the gel...but the image turned out too washed out...it wasnt as clear as yours... I'll try again with different gels and papers! fun!! Thank u!
Nice one! Cool art techniques, love 'em. :)
Wow, a lot of drama on this video's comments!! I think of my (non- drawing art) as mixed media! I use a lot of "things" to express what I want. I also use pictures I take, so I guess if you like to draw then draw, but I like to make things and change things that are already made! Altered art is a real form of art. What about people that paint... I can paint, but not draw to well, what are they? Hmmm? Seems like some people just know how to draw and that's all ;)
Beautiful work, and Sheba is pretty too! :)
Sheba is a beautiful kitty!
Great stuff loved it.. Thanks Ann in Canada
@richmond436 don't be so singleminded and negative :) , besides, people don't go around looking for ways to fake drawing, this is just a cool technique , we all have a choice for everything, you can choose to watch videos where they teach drawing ;P .
I draw and actually pretty good at it, and love this.
If all artists had your mentality, art wouldn't have progressed past the 18th century. Open your mind and quit being a hater!
wow your cat is so beautiful.......how can somebody do that? she looks like an angora......i loooove kitties! xoxoxo
That's brilliant, thanks, found this video by accident. Will try it now :) Does that work only with magazine prints or photographes as well?
I started doing collages half a year ago, and i enjoy it so much more than drawing. Don't think that collaging is only for people who can't draw :) i can draw quite good I'm just a bit bore of it. I like to be surprised by the effect methods have on my collages. I just bought the book "Major Works by Leading Artists" by Randel Plowman, it's brilliant :)
ur awesome :)
Hi Sheba!!!!
this is great. i love your work, your videos and your accent. what kind of surface/canvas are you using here?? answer me!! :D
Sheba looks like my Lucy Lu. I love this transfer stuff. Does it have to be pages from 1960? What are you doing Gary? You are rocking my journey, that's what you are doing! =)
I used a magazine picture a little thicker paper .. is this why it might be staying a white color instead of the image color ,,, its looks perfect when wet but when its dry it looks crappy .. not the image I wanted .. however i didnt wet the picture first .. could this also be the problem ... the image transferred fine but when dry it look like paper is still stuck to it .. but I can remove any more pls advise
great technique, adorable cat
what more could I wish for?
I mean I cant remove anymore paper instead of can as stated below
Merci super!
interesting! would this work on canvas/cotton duck?
I tried this with super heavy gloss jell and it doesn't work at all, I did everything exactly how he did. some jells are not equal as others.
@richmond436 don't be so singleminded and negative :) , besides, people don't go around looking for ways to fake drawing, this is just a cool technique , if you don't like it , why would u even stop by, or search it?
Am i aloud to use regular printing paper?
Now that sounds awfully 80s concept-art to me... make up your mind!
what about copyrights?
Who cares
