This is my first attempt at a canvas transfer. I've seen a couple of different ways to do this but decided to stick with the Mod Podge Photo Transfer Medium.
You use it the same way you would with wood, which is just flipping your image on the computer, printing it on a laser printer (which is important, inkjet photos do not come out as crisp) and brushing the Photo Transfer Medium image down and brushing out all the bubbles.
When it was time to peel away the paper, I had to put a pile of books underneath my canvas to prevent the sides from caving inward and denting.
Definitely did not come out as "clean" as it does with wood, assuming due to how textured canvas is, so I decided to make it a mixed media piece to sort of camouflage the distressed markings left on the photo from scrapping the paper off.
