The thing about gelli printing is that the possibilities are endless. I saw these physics notes and just knew I had to use them for something. While experimenting with photo transfers, I used these as a background. The end result is so cool - I love it. Next time, though, I’ll probably make the Einstein smaller to highlight the notes more. Just waiting for a fresh set of notes to steal!

Can you hear it? A quiet, whisper of a print I thought about not sharing.
I had a frustrating day in the studio yesterday, making four attempts at a design (not this) and ending in a slight defeat.
I made this quick, messy mono print as a way to wrap up my art session, not a “cherry on top” of a design but a better ending than nothin’…
I do like it though, feels a little poetic…
Thanks for following, taking a peek at my work and taking the time in general, I appreciate ya 🖤

“Something is wrong!” I kept exclaiming when pulling these prints. The ink combo is off? Wait, which brand of gel plate am I using? Is there too much water in my brush? Is the paint too thick? Is my hand pressure off?
SO MANY QUESTIONS when it comes to a successful gel plate mono print.
In this case my inks were off and I needed to switch gel plate brands.
Do you know what I think I am going to do? A reel on comparing gel plate brands. Would that be helpful? Let me know in the comments! For real!
Putting together content like that is a bunch of work but I will do it if folks are interested?
Anyways! Keep trying! Keep going! In any art form you are working in.
Thank you for following, I have some paper collages to share this week 🖤

🎨 Gel Printing Tutorial with the GELELF Plate 🎨
How to do gel monoprinting? Watch this tutorial to learn how to use the GELELF gel printing plate for fun, one-of-a-kind prints! ✨
——
Materials Used:
🔹 GELELF gel printing plate( 5” x 7” plate used in this video)
🔹Bristol smooth paper
🔹Acrylic paint
🔹Magazine pages for image transfer & texture
🔹Brayer (roller) for even spreading
——
Tips for Successful Gel Prints:
🔹 What types of images work best for gel transfers?
High-contrast black-and-white magazine images.
Black-and-white laser-printed images on glossy or magazine paper.
🔹 How long should I wait before lifting the image from the gel plate?
Wait 10–20 seconds after placing the image onto the gel plate.
🔹 How long should I wait before lifting the paper from the gel plate in the final step?
Depending on the thickness of the paint, allow 10–30 minutes for the paint to dry (the thicker the paint, the longer the wait).
🔹 What should I do if the acrylic paint dries on the gel plate before transferring?
Apply another layer of paint or transparent acrylic gel medium, then transfer your design to the paper.
🔹 Why isn’t my image transfer working?
Your paint may be too thick or too dry before you apply the magazine image. For better results, try thinning the paint by rolling your brayer on a clean sheet of paper between applications, and layer the magazine image before the paint dries.
