What?
Learn how to print without a press.
This is the perfect course for beginners but can also be valuable and enjoyable for those who've had some experience of gel plate printing.
Using simple stencils (of shapes or plants or other) and found materials, we'll explore printing onto large sheets using the Gelliplate. We'll choose a colour palette and cover the entire sheet before learning how to fold and cut the paper to create our own artists book.
The books shown are just an indication of the kind of book you can make in this way, but each one will be unique to you.
Gelliprinting is fast to learn and fun and it's easy to get hooked!

It runs from 10 - 1pm on Saturday 1st February 2025
