The Art of Geli-Printing Again - Afternoon Workshop

 The June workshop filled amazingly quickly and we are delighted that Helen Cooper, from The Butterfly Effect Studio, is returning to lead a second introductory session on geli-printing in October.

Geli-printing is quickly becoming a favourite printmaking technique. With just a little bit of paint and a few random objects, it will quickly become one of your favourite art forms, too! Printmaking has a rich history dating back centuries, evolving from traditional methods to contemporary techniques that blend innovation with tradition.

Helen will introduce us to this versatile technique using soft, flexible, silicone gel plates to produce immediate, professional-quality results.  Copy paper, Teabag paper, wet strength tissue and fabric can all be used to introduce textures and colours. Helen will show us how to experiment with all these, and more, to create stunning, original papers that make this technique such a favourite among artists and crafters alike.
