Thank you! I tend to work either horizontal or square. I might challenge myself to experiment with vertical pieces going forward. I do love working on larger pieces but mostly I love working on paper. I have a 36”x 36” blank canvas that needs to be painted. We shall see. 😍
I find that if you put the gel medium on the substrate then lay your tissue on top it's way easier. Also, of you use heavier paper for your collage, spray it with water, spread gel medium, then lay down your collage paper. Smooth with credit card or similar item to remove bubbles. You'll get way smoother collage this way.
Swedish Tracing Paper ( Amazon) is a better alternative to tissue paper. It is used to make dressmaking patterns and can be sewn. It has excellent transparecy when used with gelli printing and strong enough for collage too
I so enjoyed watching your artful process; each stage is its own work of art. Could you please share the name of the medium you use with the stencil ? Thank you, Lynn
Hello Lynn, I’m using watered down acrylic paint with a makeup sponge. You could really use anything with a stencil. I sometimes use my water soluble pastels with this technique. Hope that helps. 😍
Love the way you make the black lines in the very beginning!
Thank you!😍
The one gelli print looks like a sunset on the ocean. Your finished piece is wonderful.
Love your observation! I love a good sunset. Thanks for watching! 😍
I love how your final piece turned out. Thanks for sharing. New sub!! 🙂
Thanks so much! 😊 So happy you are here! 😍
beautiful! Thanks for sharing your technique with us
Thanks my friend! 😍
Persnally, i liked it best at the 7.54 stage. It is a great demo of possinilities though and i will definitely get the oil pastels out.❤
Thanks! I’m definitely a ‘more is better’ kind of girl. Haha! Those Neocolors are so versatile. 😍
Beautiful piece!👏🏼😃
Thank you! Cheers!
Your art is so beautiful! Thanks for the video and sharing your process.
You are too kind. Thanks so much!😍
Loved this! Two questions: Do you ever work more vertically and do you ever work on a larger scale?

Thanks for your reply. I look forward to following whatever you do.@@MixedMediaArtByTrina
What did you use/apply on the stencils? I love your style. So Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Hey Patricia! I used acrylic paint with a makeup sponge on the stencil. It makes it easy to get in those small areas. 😍
@@MixedMediaArtByTrina Awesome! Thank you, Trina!
I Trina, can you tell me where you buy your stencil, I like it so much. Thank you for everything
😉🙃🙂
Absolutely! It’s from Temu and I put a link In the description. Thanks for watching! 😍

Thank you! I like the thinness and transparency of tissue paper. If I could find a thicker but still transparent paper that might be optimal. 😍

I will look into that! The tissue paper I have is quite delicate. Thanks so much. 😍

I love this piece and the process! That stencil is amazing!!! Do you have the name or link? The link posted goes to a Japanese park page.
Hey Brandy, sorry about the link. I got the stencil from TEMU. It’s called the ‘Plaid Scrapbooking DIY Painting Template’ Hope that helps! 😍
