The image forming apparatus attaches a plurality of liquids onto a recording medium so as to form a desired image, the image forming apparatus including: a first liquid attaching device that attaches onto the recording medium a first liquid which contains a high-boiling organic solvent, a polymerization initiator, and a diffusion preventing agent for preventing diffusion and smearing of a second liquid to be attached onto the recording medium after the first liquid is attached onto the recording medium; a second liquid attaching device that attaches the second liquid which contains a radiation-curable polymerizable compound, onto at least an area of the recording medium onto which the first liquid has been attached; a third liquid attaching device that attaches a third liquid which contains a polymerization initiator and a radiation-curable polymerizable compound, onto at least an area of the recording medium onto which the first liquid and the second liquid have been attached; and a first radiation irradiating device that irradiates at least an area of the recording medium onto which the third liquid has been attached, with a radiation.
