Britain's What's On Event Guide
Gel Plate Printing: The Basics
Gel plate printing is the process of creating monotypes by applying acrylic paint to a flexible gel plate and pressing a piece of paper onto the plate. The paint that is applied to the plate can be layered, and texture and patterns can be created by using stencils and other tools before applying the paper to the plate. When the print is pulled off of the plate, a unique print will be created.
Shelley, from Ways of Seeing, will be demonstrating various printing techniques for you to have a go at over the course of the workshop. You'll also be able to turn some of your prints into mini artworks and gift cards. Each participant will have a 6x 6 gel plate to work with for the duration of the workshop and there will also be opportunity to take turns to try out a larger, A4 sized plate.
All materials and tools to take part in this workshop will be provided. Participants will be able to take home all their prints and creations. Sustenance in the form of tea, coffee & biscuits will also be provided!
