Gelli Workshop 1, 27/5/16

The first Gelatine print workshop today at Wallarobba.
It went smoothly with everyone producing great prints
and lots of them.

We also had some former members visit, Anne and June,
which was nice.

 Present today: John and Pat, Maureen, Lorraine, Michelle, Robin, and Marianne.

 Demonstrating placing leaves as stencils.

 Adding another layer of a different colour, leaves still in place.


 Hand burnishing.

 The plate can be wiped clean with water and cloth, or a wet wipe.


 A residue of plate tone is left behind.
