Remember: Bring your messy self, take what you need (no such thing as being behind), and remember that more than zero is enough. Here's the prompt for today's Messy May:Add journaling to your art journal page. What are you thinking? How are you...
Tiffany Meduna
Tiffany Julia is an artist of many trades living in New York City with an absolute passion for documenting her everyday life. She enjoys keeping little handmade A6 journals that combine her love of art journaling, junk journaling, and memory keeping, with pages and pages filled with writing. She believes as long as you’re honoring your story, there’s no wrong way to journal.

Bonus – Clear Packing Tape Transfer
This is–in my opinion–the easiest image transfer technique to perform and great to add a little something different to your journals.
Lesson 4 – Layering Image Transfers
For this final lesson, I will demonstrate how you can create a really cool art journal spread by layering multiple image transfers on top of one another. This particular process does take time to complete, only because you have to wait until each transfer is completely dry before you add another transfer over it. But the outcome is so worth the time and wait.
Lesson 3 – Image Transfers Over Collaged Backgrounds
In this lesson, I will show you how you can add image transfers over backgrounds of collaged tissue paper, napkins and patterned papers, to create dimensional spreads in your art journal.
Lesson 2 – Intricate Backgrounds
In this lesson, I will show you how to create intricate backgrounds using paints, inks, and a series of image transfers. This is an easy way to make your pages pop and look like they took a great deal of work to create.
Welcome to Transference
Welcome to the class!
Lesson 1 – Acrylic Gel Medium Transfers
In this lesson I will go over the basic steps you’ll take to create an image transfer. These will be the exact same steps you’ll do for every single acrylic medium image transfer you’ll ever make. Once you’ve got this technique down, you’ll be able to incorporate it into your spreads with other mediums like paints, inks, and various papers.
Transference
In Transference, Tiffany Julia will show you how to create image transfers using acrylic mediums and combine them with other mediums like paints, inks, and different types of papers to create beautifully intricate pages and spreads in your art journals. Image transfers are a simple art technique that create soft layers and the dreamy appearance of hand painted art. Following the lessons in this class, you will learn how to create art journal pages that pull viewers in to take a closer look at the layers and details that lie just beneath the surface. This class is perfect for anyone looking to expand their creative toolkit and work slowly and methodically in their art
Closing Thoughts
I really hope you enjoyed Transference! I know image transfers may seem a bit daunting at first, but once you’ve learned all the steps and have created a process that works for you, they become simple and easy to do. I really hope this class helps to clear up the process and leaves you inspired to create more image transfer spreads in your journals!
