Description
Enjoy a morning of art making! Gelli printing is a way to create beautiful papers and designs to be used in art journaling, card making, backgrounds, and much more. Using just a few materials, you will be printing with your Gelli plate before you know it!
I will show you step by step how to use your Gelli plate with acrylic paints and stencils, and various found objects like string, sponge, combs, and other household items.
Join me for a fun morning of painting and printing in the comfort of your own home. I will be in my Prescott studio broadcasting live on Zoom. The session will be recorded for your viewing pleasure.
I think you'll love the results!
