What?
Learn how to print without a press.
For beginners or those who've had some experience of gel plate printing.
Using stencils - home made and commercial - we'll explore making marks and patterns on the gelliplate.
We'll work in layers and find ways to highlight the shapes or patterns we've chosen, as well as using colours for chosen effects like contrast. We'll consider the use of limited palettes.
We'll take our playful papers and work towards creating finished prints and, for those who would like to, a collage of printed papers.
Gelliprinting is fast to learn and fun and it's easy to get hooked!
When?
It runs from 10 - 1pm on Saturday 29th March 2025
How much?
*£35 per person which includes all materials you will use on the day.
