Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this printing class:

Learn to use the Gelli plate and make unique and vibrant multi-layer monoprints by hand using slow-dry Golden OPEN acrylic paints!

In this workshop, learn how to apply paint onto a Gelli plate, create masks, incorporate stencils, layer translucent and opaque paints, build up multiple layers, and transfer magazine images.

Students will create stacks of unique multi-layered prints that can be matted or framed or used in creating mixed media art. One thing is for sure: there will be both planned and spontaneous results!

Required Materials:

  • Gelli Plate8x10 or larger 
  • Golden OPEN acrylic paints (normal acrylic paints will not work with this process, it must the OPEN line from Golden)
  • Normal acrylic paint in white and black
  • 4-inch soft rubber brayer
  • Printmaking paper (i.e. cheap drawing paper, tissue paper, old papers from books, sheet music, maps, etc.)
  • Baby wipes
  • Stencils or plant material of any kind (i.e. ferns, leaves, any odds and ends of lace, string, yarn, corrugated cardboard, any items with texture)
  • Marking tools (i.e. chopsticks, soft-ended scrappers, or anything that will mark but not puncture the Gelli Plate)
  • A few paint brushes
  • Scissors
  • Matte medium
  • Newsprint paper or scraps to off-load extra paint

Please note: Students are encouraged to bring snacks or a bagged lunch.
