very beginning monoprinting




I had a most enjoyable day today learning how to use a gelatin plate for monoprinting from Linda Germain.  Here are a few of my "beginnings."  Linda made the plates and we used Speedball ink.  I'll be using a commercial plate made by Gelli Art and look forward to much more "R&D."  Too dreary for plein air anyway!

    Gee, these are really interesting. I've never done this and have no idea what's involved. Guess I'll have to check it out on the internet..........

    Hi Cheri, All you need is knox gelatin and imagination, which I'm sometimes lacking but this is a way to pump it up. I'll post the recipe. What's your email?
