I used this technique to create backgrounds for several pages in my worship journal.
I taught this technique at a workshop earlier this summer. Here's a look at some of the designs created by participants in that workshop.

Let's Paint - Gelli Plate Techniques
My first attempts at using a gelli plate were, uhmm, less than successful. However, I continued to practice (and then teach) this technique and really like the results. The basic idea is to apply paint to a gelli plate, then use a variety of tools to add designs and textures before adding the paint to a page.

I have a Gelli plate that I've only used once or twice. Like you I wasn't particularly fond of the final product. I just love your first page! Maybe I'll get it out again.
ReplyDeleteI like the cool blues & greens in the first photo. So glad to see a post from you today, I was wondering how "Harvey" is affecting you, if at all. Never heard of Gelli Plate Techniques but it does look like fun.
ReplyDeleteI just love your artwork. You have certainly perfected many different techniques. I need to use ink and paint more!
