Just found this video❤ it ....fantastic artistic demonstration with beautiful results thank you so much.....I have liked and subscribed to show support for your channel...hugs from Scotland 🤗
so glad to find someone that is actually putting thought into a finished piece of artwork with these techniques! I hope to be seeing a lot more of your creations!! And thanks for info on Readi-stamps!
Watching acrylic paint dry on your artistic gel plate is the most boring thing ever SAID NO ONE EVER. That first print with the masks is amazing. I’m just beginning to learn this technique. I find it scrambles my brain…there’s a lot to know, a lot to learn, but for me, watching you and hearing you describe your process is making sense…a bit. New subscriber. Nice to meet you. 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much! So happy to have you here! I’m just starting out, and am a little nervous about what people might want to see. Using a gel plate is so much fun, and playing around is the best way to learn! Nice to meet you too!
I’ve always admired your work - the visual textures, graphics, colors - then later realized it was digital. I too love to play with the gel plate as well as procreate blending layers in different ways and I always wondered how to translate all the delicious effects of digital in reality on paper… this video is sooo inspiring and has opened up so many possibilities. Please keep on sharing techniques of realizing all those gorgeous digital blends on physical substrates… ❤️🙏🏻
Gorgeous and fascinating to watch you work and hear your thought processes. Might you show us how you make your figures on the iPad? I can make carrot figures but they’re not as elegant as yours and i dont think i could do it on my ipad…..🤷♀️
Thank you! I actually start with a photograph of a shadow-usually my hubby’s. Then I draw to make it what I want. I do all my figures on the iPad. I will have to think how I would do a video on it, I might in the future.
Fabulous video. Thanks so much for being so informative about your processes and the things you are using. It was fantastic watching you work and getting really engrossed in what you were doing 💜
Outstanding technique video and art make. You are a wonderful addition to any group! You’re a woman of many talents and I hope to see and learn more from your work in the future.❤️
I’d love to support the cerebral palsy organization that does stamp making. Can you share more information on how I could do that? Thx for sharing your art process. I’m a new subscriber now.
Here is the website. It’s a good idea to phone them-they are old-school like me! I get the soft polymer sheets and I think it’s $32 for each 9 x 7 sheet. They will go over the process with you! readystamps.com
I gave you a hearty "Like" for really novel & interesting technique. You sort of lost me on the ground coffee though since that is not at all archival. I guess because I do conservation work for a living. Why not opt for dry powder pigment as an alternative. I think as artists we should ideally hope that our work will outlive us and be appreciated by future generations. So use a Ph neutral substrate stock and time tested mediums. Stay Safe, Healthy, & Happy.
Thanks! You are right about the coffee, but i don’t think powdered pigments would have the same texture. Also, the paper I am using isn’t archival either. I don’t sell my original work and since I am a digital artist primarily I will photograph it and maybe use it as a digital print. My mother and grandmother were both artists who created on non archival papers and substrates and their work survives- some of my grandmother’s work is over 100 years old and in great shape. But I do see your point and agree in principle about using archival products.
Thank you! I'm just starting out, and the equipment I have is finicky. To get closer the boom would be between me and the work, so I would not be able to see anything. Working on a solution, but right now it is what it is.
I don’t draw either! These were actually photos of my husband’s shadow that I altered digitally. Then I drew a little here and there. I made stencils and stamps from these. Hopefully one day i will become a designer for a stencil company that will produce them. That’s the goal. I love using figures in my work.
There are many products you can use to seal your artwork from gel medium (be careful as the coffee might run) to spray sealants designed for sealing artwork. I use a spray fixative, like what you use to seal charcoal and chalks, then follow with gel medium because that’s what I usually have on hand. Hope this helps!
Really enjoyed watching this - thank you - can’t I ask about your desk top? I love it ans can’t work out whether you have distressed it or is it a fake piece?
Thank you! The table was made by a neighbor (I paid him), 67 inches x 45 inches-actually. built for a different room, but my MIL had to live with us so I moved rooms. It is in 3 parts so I can get it out of the door. The top is just thick plywood. I have a glass top on it with a vinyl image underneath the glass. I prefer to work on glass as it is easy to cut, work and clean. Ive had to replace it twice, once because the movers broke it. But it is going on 25 years now. I have a new vinyl piece coming-this one is getting very cruddy. You cant see it on the videos, but it needs to be changed. It lasted around 9 years, so I think that's pretty good.
Thank you! I got the registration tool on Amazon but when I went to get the link for you I discovered it has nearly doubled in price! ouch!

@@trdewey Thanks for the link. And you are correct there's no way I'm paying $36 for that tool. I am a gadget geek - but within reason. Maybe I should tape a couple of sturdy strips of acetate to the edge of a cheap framing square tool I got from the dollar store. If it had been $10 or $12, I would have bought it in a heartbeat.
@@luxurycardstore Yes you can make one yourself. Ive seen people create one from an old frame, stuff you can find in a hardware store, or even putting the same size paper under your gelli plate and lining it up that way. Im not a stickler for registration, so I am not an expert.
@@karens5429 I wish, I am working on it! I would have to be in partnership with a larger company who could make these in bulk. I am hoping a company will want to produce them.
No I don't- I'm just starting out again after a long absence so I am not sure how much time I have to film. I plan on doing these videos about once a week for now and maybe I can do more.
Amazing! It scrambles my brain, too! I absolutely LOVE my gel plates, and experimenting. Thank you so much for teaching us new things to do💜💜💜
Thank you!
I love your work. It’s such a high end look in the end. 😊
Thank you so much!

Thank you! I’ve used Ready Stamps for almost 20 years-they are amazing.
Very nice! That was fun watching you❤
Thank you!
Beautiful art piece!
I have worked with Ready Stamps, too. I first learned about them when I lived in San Diego in the 1990s.
They are wonderful to work with! I’ve been a customer over 23-24 years now. I will continue as long as they do. Thank you so much!
Fantastic artwork Tricia! Thank you so much for sharing your process with us! 💖
Thank you! Filming is a learning curve for sure!
🎉❤Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Hi Marguerite! Just saw you on the PM Artist Studio Live today! Thank you for watching!
Thank you, Tricia! I always learn new ways to do art from you!
Thank you Lynn! I’m a bit rusty.
🙏Thanks for coming back Tricia❤

Oh wow Thank you so much! I hope to do both digital and physical art videos on this channel!
This one is amazing 😮❤
Thank you so much!
Congrats on getting your channel up and running. Awesome first video too!
Thank you! I still have some bugs to work out, but will get better I hope!
Great techniques; great video! I think I know how to keep watercolor paper from curling now: put it on a gel plate. ❤
It only helps while you are working on it! I still have to iron and put heavy stuff on it. But it does help while you are still working with it.

Hi Tricia. You are so talented. I look forward to seeing more videos in the future.

Tricia… you mentioned @22:00 that you had on of your digital images turned into a stamp. Where did you have that done? Thank you
I have them made by readystamps.com.
This print is lovely. I really enjoyed watching your process. I'm a beginner who doesn't draw. Any suggestions to help with adding figures?
I don’t draw either! These were actually photos of my husband’s shadow that I altered digitally. Then I drew a little here and there. I made stencils and stamps from these.

What do you spray the print with after using coffee?
Usually just spray fixative.
Do you draw your figures or have you found stencils for these? They are delightful.
So, these are stamps. Are they available?
They are mine, I created them digitally and have made stencils and stamps out of them.
