Gelli Plate Mono Printing
Dianne Hicks

Come and join us for a day of Gelli Printing. We will be focusing on circular shapes or a mandala form. We will be doing some basic techniques and layering. We will use stencils and paint to create layers using the Gelli Plate. Card stock stencils will be furnished for you to use and take home. Gelli Arts has also develped an 8" circular plate in case you get into the circular image. A circulate plate is not necessary but I will also be demontrating on both the large Gelli plate and the circular one. Paper and paint will be furnished but feel free to bring stencils or paint if you have favorites. Please bring Gelli plate, a brayer, paper towels, baby wipes and a spray water bottle. Also be sure to wear old cloths or bring an apron. You may want to also pack a lunch or plan on grabbing a bite. We will take a short break. If you do not have a round or regular Gelli Plate, you can buy one at Stamp Asylum on the day of class. ($45)
