Join e bond (& co-maker Courtney Cerruti) in this three-hour session making abstract mono prints with gelli plates. e uses mono printing on gelli plates as a tool in many different ways: to warm up (mark making), to loosen up (layering onto existing pieces of art), and to make piles and piles of "future good stuff" (i.e. collage pieces for use in future projects like handmade books, fabric, and patterns).
This time together will be used to create and pull prints, talk about processes, and look at some of e’s previous projects made using these techniques in her personal art practice. Grab your gel plate and come play with us!

This class is so full of inspiration if you enjoy gelli printing and abstract art. I picked up several great tips - e.g. leaving layers to dry before pulling the final print (apart from the last layer!); leaving the plastic on the back of the plate so you can take a peek through the 'window' to see what your print might look like; pressing objects into the plate etc. The examples of E's printing on fabric are beautiful and something I've never tried before, but want to. Some things made me laugh too - such as the work table never being 'big enough' and Courtney's desire to have 'all the things' to make art (me too!). I'm so glad I watched this. Thank you!
Really loved seeing the possibilities - Great Class!!
I loved this class. So much good information and also good to see E go through her process. Thank you!
