Transfer Artist Paper¬–Transfer Your Imagination Into Art



CONCORD, CA, June 1, 2010—http://www.ctpub.com/productdetails.cfm?PC=1817  TAP™ Transfer Artist Paper, originally developed by C&T Publishing author Lesley Riley, will now be distributed by C&T Publishing. C&T is excited be supporting Riley’s http://www.ctpub.com/contributorinfo.cfm?ContribID=458 efforts by taking on the distribution of this exciting new product starting in June, 2010.

Lesley Riley’s TAP™ Transfer Artist Paper is a premium-quality transfer paper that allows you to transfer images to virtually any surface with the heat of an iron. From fabric to paper, wood, glass, metal, and more, there are very few surfaces that can’t be “TAPPED.”

Internationally known teacher, author, and mixed-media artist, Lesley Riley worked with a chemist for three years to develop the perfect formula for TAP™. TAP™ uses a nano-technology to encapsulate the particles of ink and transfer them to the fabric. Nothing tops this transfer quality. Riley was motivated to create TAP™ because she wanted to share the magic of transfers with other artists:

“To me, transfers have always been magical. I've been doing them for years and each one I do is still a mini-magical-moment. Now with TAP™, it's even easier and more foolproof to get a good transfer on so many surfaces. There is nothing better than the sound a group of students make when I first show them a TAP Transfer. Wait! There is a better sound - the one they make when they do their own transfers.”

What makes Lesley Riley’s TAP™ Transfer Artist Paper different from other transfers? The quality...especially on fabric. Once transferred, the image is fused into the fibers of the fabric. It virtually becomes a part of the material. After the image his cooled, you can stretch the fabric and it will have no impact on the image. It will not even crack! It can be applied to cotton, polyester, leather and many more fabrics. TAP™ can be ironed and washed with out any cracking or bleeding.
“Yes, there are plenty of other methods for creating transfers, but if you're looking to quickly produce a rich, clear transferred image, TAP is the product you need. Rather than wasting time with multiple transfers with the hope of a good result, TAP will help you get an excellent transfer the first time you use it. Imagine the possibilities!” said quilt, digital and mixed-media artist, Gloria Hansen.
