    Thank you, Nitsa, you are very artistic and experienced artist. For everyone out there who has never done this kind of technique, BE VERY MUCH AWARE!! this is not as easy as the videos make it look. I wasted a lot of money and time and was not successful. If anything almost traumatized me and made me feel so incompetent. I am renowned for not giving up and have done complicated art to a good standard. In any case all the best of luck.

    Probably pre washing 100% cotton, then ironing flat before printing would be a good idea. It will probably be a little wrinkled on other washes anyway-Cotten is like this, but preshrinking cotton before doing anything with it, if you’re going to wash it later, is standard among fabric designers. Then again, maybe the print medium stabilizes it in some way? And hey, such beautiful work..I’ve surely subscribed..love your channel and kind appreciation!

    • @NitsaCreativeStudio
      @NitsaCreativeStudio  2 роки тому

      Thank you so much for the tip and for the kind words 🥰 I think the medium does help for the paint to stick to the fabric and also to be washable.

    When do you recommend cleaning the gel plate? Should I be removing the dried paint between prints?

    • @NitsaCreativeStudio
      @NitsaCreativeStudio  Рік тому

      I clean it at the end of each session by pulling off all the paint with a layer of thin light paint. Every now and then I soak the plate for a few minutes in warm water and mild soap. I don't usually don't wipe the plate between prints unless I am printing photos and want them to be clear (usually I prefer grungy looking prints)

    I can’t wait to try this. I am not sure if I missed anything but do u have to wash the fabric first before you start the transfer. Thank you for such a fun project😍🌴💕

    • @NitsaCreativeStudio
      @NitsaCreativeStudio  3 роки тому

      Thank you as always Annette 🥰 Some people like to wash the fabric before using it, but I don't find it necessary especially when I use canvas!
      But if you transfer to a cotton shirt its probably a good idea to pre-wash it.

  • @jaimiegordon2065
    @jaimiegordon2065 Рік тому

    when you are printing your photos with this laser printer, are you running them thru the printer more than once? there seems to be so much disagreement on proper laser prints, with so many saying it won't work for them, and others insisting that color laser printer setting should be used even if using b/w image, not truly changing to grayscale but leaving RGB and using a color printing BEST setting. Could you share your opinion and experience on this issue? thanks!

    • @NitsaCreativeStudio
      @NitsaCreativeStudio  Рік тому

      Hi Jaimie, I only print once but I make sure to print the photos darker than the original and with some added contrast. I'm not sure why one needs to set up the printer to color, maybe it's a good choice for some color printers, I only have monochrome printers, so it does not apply to my process anyway.

    • @NitsaCreativeStudio
      @NitsaCreativeStudio  Рік тому

      Hi Maureen, try going to the very basics and experiment with this process step by step. Use just one paint (like Amsterdam Standard Acrylic), in dark color (like black or dark blue), and quite important, use a high contrast clear photo printed on copy paper (20lb-28lb). Check out the "photo editing" chapter on page 154 to see how it's done. Color photocopies are possible to use when you are an advanced gel photo printer, not a great choice for a beginner since it's difficult to get high contrast with color copies.
      I hope this helps 🙏

      I had no success gel printing photos with fabric paints, I think they are just too soft. If you have heavy weight fabric paints, it might worth a try.
