In Australia the product to use is orange solv which you can find at commercial cleaning shops or orange power which is available in coles. To be found usually top shelf in the cleaning section.
I've had luck with cheap catalogs as well. The effect is more translucent. I sprayed it on and got great pastel colored paper for collage.
fantastic ideas, Gary. I want to see the results from your experimentation on the larger piece. LOVE the "edges" idea. Thanks, Diana
The flimsy Sunday magazines in newspapers work great. If they even have those anymore.
Brush on and close magazine to dry
@SassyNpinkable Honestly I don't know how archival it is, it hasn't really been used for along period of time. I came across the technique and wanted to try it...and so I did. Like many techniques I move on, so i am not using it any more...but that is not to say I won't. I would say it isn't very archival but then most of my work isn't. I use lots of materials which clash and react so who knows what will happen in100 years! We all create art for different reasons, I do it for myself!
Wow great ideas...so much fun and beautiful...thank you
I love that giftwrap idea, it's awesome. I've got to try this Citrasolve idea, the holidays are coming and I could do some handmade gifts for friends. I can't wait to see how your canvas turns out. Two thumbs up!
Sorry for the thumbs down, it wasn't on purpose!!!! Gave it a thumbs-up just after, but the harm was already done... your vids are always great, I feel so bad!
Thanks so much Gary. I really want to give this a try.
awesome Gary You inspire me!!!
I have found a product with the same ingredients called Orange TKO Natural Orange Cleaner. I have not tried it yet (need to find a National Geographic Mag).
Also the Citra Solve webiste has an entire arts area... showing what others have done with citra solve. Pretty cool.
I'm another new subscriber, and I have the same question about the finished canvas. I'd love to see the result!
By the way, great work - wonderful videos, very inspiring!
I love that....I have seen it before ...it is beautiful...Thank you for this video = )
@SassyNpinkable OK well seriously I doubt it is archival at all, but then you as an artist have to decide on whether that matters or not! I love the product although i don't use it any more or the technique. It is fun to play around and experiment with different materials and ideas regardless of how archival they are...it can lead to new discoveries and ideas.
Gary- I have found another product called TKO that is just like CitraSolv and you get a bit more for your money and can use less of it and get the same results. Just Google TKO and it will come up. I love your ideas- I did this a few months back and haven't done anything with the pages so thanks for prodding me along! Can't wait to see your canvas results! BTW- I did some with turps and let them sit overnight- covered do they wouldn't dry out- and they came our pretty well also- just stinkier!
I gave noticed that we all sort of get very similar papers over and over. Obviously the ink combinations on pages is repetitive. Light colors the hardest to acquire
@CapricornArtist73 oh ok. Thanks for the reply I appreciate it and understand now it was just for fun! yay fun!
How did you cut out the can shape from the book? I love that piece!
Waxed paper could be good too. I buy it in the supermarket and use it with inks but i would work with the citrasolv too.
ive gotta try this...ty
nice results. I will try to find something similar to citrosolve and give it a chance.
dear greetings!!!xoxoxo
Hello...first time I have seen your video...enjoyed and subscribed...add me to the list of others that want to see the results of the finished canvass......please....( hope there is a video of it showing the steps you took....Thank you
Heard about this, but didn't know the process, so your video was wonderful. I do have a question that I haven't found the answer for, if you use it as a background and want to embellish it, do you need to spray with a fix it?
I have so many ideas after watching your videos it's a good thing I'm retired and have the time to try them.
Thanks for such an inspiration!
@filochick08 Hi I am moving to Melb in Decemeber! As far as I am aware you can't get the product in Australia yet! But hopefully they will start distribution soon!
wow those are cool. tfs
That`s pretty damn cool! Gonna have to look on ebay fron NG`s now :D
What was that ikea product? - plexitile?
@filochick08 1 July Update: Orange Power Sticky Spot + Goo Dissolver is the only Australian product that I have found works reliably with this technique. Check the Orange Power website for where to buy, including at Coles, BILO and larger IGAs. Australian Purchasers - You can purchase Orange Power online for $4.50.
@ankeart hey man i found the video that has the finished canvas it is called "my creative work"
I love the effect but I do wonder about the archival quality of certain techniques. I don't want to sell art to someone if it isn't going to last. Anyone have any thoughts on such matters?
Copyright laws state that a work that is altered are no longer covered by copyright - and it doesn't need to be altered much.
hey there, where do you get citrasolve from?
@SOLE1PRODUCTIONS Thanks a lot!
hey im a new subscriber do you have a finished video of that canvas with citrosolv i cant find it
Hi there, just wondering where can you buy the citrasolv? Im from Melbourne and cant seem to find it...
You didn't tell us how to use it? Just briefly you said paint it on liberally and then something about pladtic wrap?
Just wondering about the archival quality...does it keep eating away at the paper and people buying artworks may be disappointed when it dissolves away in the frame. How long have you been doing this?
Cool
Use more recent nat g. Not the really old. They change to a clay base so old old does not work
Hi can u buy citrisol in Australia?
where do you reveal the giant canvas colage you showed the before but not how it turned out, please????
found it
@c824767 Thanks for that must test that when I move to Oz!
I just stumbled upon a citrasolv artist page with an art gallery and different techniques including photo transfers and transferring onto different surfaces. You should totally check it out! just google citrasolv artist site
I bought Citrasolv, and found some NG magazines dated 1988 but it had no effect on them at all!
Where could I have gone wrong?
I doesn't work well on the advert pages - best on the main photo pages because they're clay coated.
"Are you my mummy?" Get it. OK. I'll go now (g)
really not If but When you move to oz. well i used to live there did not like it.
PS : facebooked and twittered it.
How come you never answer all the questions about the archival quality of this technique? This is one technique I wouldn't put my name and reputation on that's for sure.
I use 2000 and more recent -also cheaper
