Gel Plate Fun

A Printing without a Press workshop with karen Carter

Tuesday 2 April 2024 – 10am to 1pm – £40

This workshop is suitable for adults.

Learn the basics of this easy monoprinting technique in this structured and relaxed workshop.

Using a gelli-plate and acrylic paints plus a host of textures, patterns and stamps we will create a stash of interesting prints which can then be used to create cards, mini artworks and bookcovers for a simple concertina book.

This is a process you can easily do at home with a minimum of specialist equipment. No experience needed – step-by-step demos.

A fun session suitable for complete beginners and those wanting to refresh their skills.

  • Kitchen roll, baby wipes, something to carry your prints home in
  • Acrylic paints – whatever you have
  • Water pot, mixing palette (a paper plate or tear-off palette is fine), scissors
  • Paper to print on….A4 lightweight cartridge and/or coloured paper– tutor will bring basic white paper
