Join us for an afternoon of Gelli Plate Printmaking with Roberta Benjamin! Gelli Plate printing is a form of monoprinting that brings together the spontaneity of painting with the texture and depth of printmaking. Using a soft, reusable, gel-like plate as your printing surface, Gelli Plate printing allows you to create stunning, one-of-a-kind prints without the need for a press or complex equipment.
In this workshop, you will:
Learn the basics of Gelli Plate printmaking, including how to use the plate, brayers, and various tools for creating texture and layering effects.
Explore a range of materials, such as acrylic paints, stencils, stamps, and found objects, to create your own unique prints.
Experiment with layering, color mixing, and creating interesting textures to add depth and intrigue to your prints.
Take home beautiful, handmade, one of a kind prints
No prior experience is necessary! This workshop is designed to be fun, relaxed, and full of creative exploration.
