Playful exploration on the Gelliplate at Clevedon Craft Centre 24/01/25

£35.00 / On Sale

What?
Learn how to print without a press.
This is the perfect course for beginners but can also be useful for those who've had some experience of gel plate printing.
Learning to play and explore on the Gelliplate can also be a great tool for any artist to learn to help them any time they are stuck or need to find their flow or if they are looking for some fresh inspiration.

Using stencils and a wide range of found, everyday materials (like the elastic bands seen in the images!) we'll playfully explore making marks and patterns on the gelliplate.
We'll build up layers and use colours for chosen effects, like contrast.
We'll print onto different papers, including old magazine pages to consider different effects.
For those who would like to we'll take our playful papers and work towards creating a finished collage.

Gelliprinting is fast to learn and fun and it's easy to get hooked!

When?
It runs from 10 - 1pm on Friday 24th January 2025
