Unlock the full potential of your gelli plate with expert guidance. Discover diverse techniques to turn your collage papers into polished designs. Elevate your paintings and brooches with additional layers, mastering the art of embellishing with encaustic wax. Join me in transforming your creative process and achieving stunning results.
3-Day Creative Workshop
Day 1: Dive into the world of colourful collage papers by learning monoprinting with a Gelli plate. Experiment with exciting techniques like incorporating botanicals, stencils, and image transfers. Enjoy plenty of hands-on practice to develop your unique artistic style.
Day 2: Transform your custom papers into art by upcycling a baby board book. Create beautiful finished pieces on mountboard and wooden panels, making the most of your new skills.
Day 3: Complete your artwork with final touches and creative flair. Craft unique bookmarks and brooches from your printed papers, and explore encaustic wax techniques in a taster session. By the end, you’ll have multiple finished projects to proudly display at home.
"Absolutely delighted with my results!
Inspiration way beyond just using a gelli plate - the applied pattern possibilities are endless-Susan strikes just the right balance between instruction and leaving time to explore, create.
