- Finally unpack and have a go with my 8" x 10" Gelli Plate. More thoughts on 'messing about' as opposed to 'messing up' !! #artprocess #gelplate #monoprinting
I love your colorful jumper and your energy, sense of humor, your funky ‘dry brush’ gel prints, woven pots and boots! Yay! Thanks for sharing your creative fun with us! So inspiring!
WOW......you liked it then 😍How lovely of you to say - I am so grateful..THANK YOU 😀VERY MUCH
Love your use of the geli plate, thank you so much, I enjoy sharing time with you.
Hi Sharon, so kind 🙏...as soon as I put the gel plate away, I want to get it out again !!
I love watching you work, so delightful.
Thank you 🥰
So Great! Love your experimenting! So creative…I’m trying to learn from you. So appreciate your videos!!
You are very welcome Sherrie X
Here's a thought: Print plant image on heavy paper and on thin (rice) paper as well. Use rice paper as collage to amp up the textural effects. A soft torn edge can be made by drawing around the wanted bits (on the rice paper) with a lightly wet pointy brush, then carefully torn away from the rice paper. Let the edges of the bits dry before handling them. Use acrylic medium to secure to substrate. Add other collage (your zig zags) or crayon effects as wanted. Love the sweater, especially with the blue shirt. You and your snake plant make a lovely couple. looking forward to more art fun and "fashion" next Thursday.
Thank you Diane....more gel plate fun to be had....I have rice paper and will follow your advice. Thank you for taking time to comment. I do love a jumper and will dig something out for next week 🥰
Never seen anyone else printing like this, and why not? Really good. ❤🇦🇺
Thank You X
Lovely sweater, lovely zigzags!
Crumbs....where is my zigzag sweater ? Hiding at the back of the closet, I hope !!
Saving for the supplies! I can’t wait to start. You’re an inspiration ❤. Thank you
Thank You X
I love your honesty. I often feel just like you. I waited so long to wear a pair of shoes, my sister wore them and I never got them back!!
Hello Patricia, this made me laugh !Thank you so much for watching and taking time to comment🥰
I’m enjoying your videos!!! I’m an abstract painter from outside Washington DC. I also have a RUclips channel. I mainly paint large so enjoy your style! Love the sweater Gaynor
Hi Cheryl, thank you for taking time to leave a lovely comment and I will look you up - so nice to see subscribers 😀
@@gaynorpattle looking forward to more art!!!!!
Always save things in wardrobe..... saving for special occasions but them l buy more stuff . Love your channel. Goodmorning from #melbourne #australia
Hello Laura in Melbourne, we must break our 'saving things' mindset 🤣Thank you for watching🥰
i do the same thing. Saving it up for good------my grandmother who lived during the Great Depression told me that. I'm trying to do better. Love your art and conversation so much
It is such a hard habit to break !!! Thank you so much for watching and taking time to comment XX
Thank you for this video❤️😊
You are very welcome, thank you for watching X
Found ... you tuber... Marianne Mitchell...meaning, style and voice.
So glad to share yr channel with others, also.
Thank you...I will look for Marianne 😀
Love the postcards and the boots (and jumper)! Self care is very important. I usually do my gel plate printing on copy paper but have some rice paper to try out with it and will let you know how it goes! I love to see your art experiments and how your creativity sparks ideas for more creativity. Have a lovely week Gaynor. 😊
I have rice paper, but it was quite an expensive roll ! What am I saving it for ? !!! Do please let me know how you get on. Thank you and have a very lovely week too 🥰
Your channel was recommended to me recently, I’ve binged all week and been loving your joyful videos 🤩 I save things too, it drives my hubby potty, he’s so generous and loves buying me things and I get sooooo told off when I explain I’m saving 😂
Hello Lesley and a very warm welcome - I am so glad you like the videos and a big thank you to whoever recommended you 🙏'Saving' is one BIG habit to break ! Thank you for taking time to comment - such great kindness 🥰
You are so right. It is about having fun and exploring what can happen. ✨🍁✨
I just bought that exact jelly plate brand and size. It's been on my art desk for 7 days and I have been too nervous to give it a go😂
Just go for it - make sure you have a stack of paper at the ready - have a play, have some fun, have a great week X
Loved your video. Love your jumper. Love your beanie-scarf. And especially loved the white/black & blue snakey plant towards the end. As always, already looking forward to next week's edition 💛💚💙
THANK YOU 😍Have a wonderful Monday and look forward to seeing you SOON ❤❤❤
🤗💖
Wow i need a burnishing tool and a gelli plate. Thank you.
Hi June, this makes me smile, you will love the gel plate 🥰
Hello Gaynor I have ordered a gel plate which should come today. Watching you play on yours made me excited and want to have a go. I will let you know how I get on Thanks
You will LOVE it 😃
Exciting watching the printing 😊 Interesting point about the finer paper. Currently watching Ruth Ander’s channel (Printing at Home), who uses a tissue paper to great effect and then collages. Looking forward to the next stage of your plant development! I’m so stuck in a rut it’s so nice to watch you getting on with new stuff. I need to take a leaf out of your book, excuse the pun :) Jill
It's no fun being stuck in a rut - have a few things on the go and see where it takes you ! I need to play more with the gel plate and will look up Ruth Ander, thank you 😀
Your art is just brilliant, Gaynor. Thank you for encouraging wannabes like me to keep experimenting and trying new things.... do I have an artistic voice? And if so, where is it hiding?? 😂
YES, YOU DO !! Have a wonderful week XX
@@gaynorpattle bless you for your encouragement....
Love this video it, my heart was in my mouth watching you in your new jumper play with the gel plate as I’m so messy, but you are so clean when you are working. I wear a big apron and sleeves to protect my clothes. I can so appreciate not wearing clothes while I don’t wear it I can take it back even though I love it, not sure if it’s to do with I’m not worth it ???? I just love what the dear gel plate reveals you could use your small plate as a palette which can reveal more wonders. Much love xx
AHHH Thank you so much ! The number of times I just forget to put an apron on !!!! I have just mentioned in the comments that as soon as I put the gel plate away, I want to get it out again !!🥰
Good morning "groovy" Gaynor, your jumper is gorgeous, I would definately get paint on it I'm like Pig pen, Charlie Browns friend, I get paint everywhere and don't know how it happened!
The Gelli plate looks really interesting I've never seen one, definately needs investigating. Thankyou for another informative and inspiring video I love Thursday mornings😀
Hello Anita.... this message makes me smile A LOT.....such kindness....thank you 🥰🙏....no emoji for groovy !!!
If you lightly crumple rice paper before printing you can get some very cool effects. Love your channel.
Hello Susan, I will get crumpling.... thank you 🥰
Awesome post Gaynor. Visually everything is stunning. Your home looks beautiful as do you -- so glad you decided to pull out that jumper - great choice as it suits you perfectly (as do the clunky boots)! Love your on-going experimentation with mono printing. I've found that gel plates are both a joy and a curse - especially when the results are frustrating. I've yet to purchase yet MORE paint but from what I've been able to understand thin coats of slow drying paint (e.g., Golden Open) appear to work best. I know in my climate despite it being winter (or perhaps because the heating is forced air in my place) paints dry extremely quickly and even with the best rice paper I end up with a mess occasionally. Thank you (over and over) for sharing your journey! As for what I'm up to - my January challenge is at least one page per day in my art journal and so far so good. Also set aside a series of 9 that I've gotten to that "certain point" where I've had to contemplate next step(s). Be well!
Quite overwhelmed by such compliments ! Thank you doesn't really cover it ! I have read that it takes 30 days to make a habit - so you are well on your way ! Wow...a series on nine gives you plenty to play with but oh how I know that 'certain point' and all I would say is don't tighten up and don't think about the finish. See it as the 'certain point' stage ! Thank you again for such kindness, it really gives me confidence to keep going 🥰
Another inspiring video. I really would love to delve into the sketchbooks though, to see how you notate your journey. With gelli/mono printing nothing can be reproduced exactly again which can be frustrating, but I love the happy accidents. Like you, I find the really good one you love after a session, is the one on the cheapest paper that’s perhaps torn or splattered with another colour accidentally. All good fun though. Thank you again Gaynor.
Hi Fiona, I write in the A4 sketchbook everyday -- some pages are all writing about how I'm feeling, art ideas I have, what I've tried and liked. I date every entry. If my pen will work...I write over the top of drawings. I have drawings that I start and go back to over the life of the sketchbook. Crumbs....perhaps a delve into the sketchbooks would be a good video ! Can I mention it was your idea ? I will get the gel plate out again for more experimentation. Thank you for your positive encouragement 🥰
@@gaynorpattle I would really enjoy such a video Gaynor, and no I don’t mind at all. I have always loved seeing sketchbooks as they gives a deeper insight into the artists mind, which I find interesting. I love your playful approach to art and respect your obvious joy and freedom. A studio tour with storage ideas etc is another hint for future viewing😂🙏💐 I love your channel and am so pleased to see it growing.
Give🤦🏻♀️😂😂
@@fionawhitfield925 Thank you 🙏
Love the video
Hello Donnice THANK YOU 🙏
Thankyou Gaynor - love the gelli plate too - thinner rice papers and heftier tissue paper work well and pick up more off the plate than thicker paper - these can then be ‘glued’ to another stiffer medium - paper or board - with gel medium. I’ve also played with some intaglio inks on the gelli plate which seem to pick up more detail but take ages to dry - a week later and still lifting a bit - must be doing something wrong - and I used thin layers of the ink 🤷 Back to the drawing board🙄
Hi Tricia... yes, have been thinking about different ways to use the thinner paper and do have a roll of rice paper that I haven't want to 'mess up' ....so more experimentation. I find it hard to wait five minutes..... A WEEK !!!!🥰
@@gaynorpattle I hear you! I’ve got so much stuff as well, that’s just too good to use / mess up! 🙄 Same with clothes - think there’s a theme here! 😳
@@triciabennetts6578 I have been known to buy something lovely and then buy a cheap 'look alike' .....never wearing the original lovely 😂Better now than I used to be. Growing up we had clothes that were for 'best', for holidays and high days, I think it stuck !
@@gaynorpattle Same here 🤷 I wonder if it’s more a female thing as well - the men I know don’t put their new clothes away for a special occasion (which may never happen) - they’re not precious about them - they just wear them - which makes much more sense! 🙂
This is my first time watching you. And I am enthralled. You are speaking my language. I, too, love playing with my gel plates. I have tried many different papers. Have you tried Hot Press watercolor paper. It is as smooth as copy paper, but a much better quality paper. I have also used Yupo and gotten an interesting effect. Thank you.
Hello Diane, I am so pleased you like the video🙏 I am going to have a go with Yupo and Hot Press watercolour paper....thank you 🥰
Hi, some people use Japanese rise paper for pulling the prints from the Gel Plates.
Hello Hanne Marie, I have a lovely unused roll of rice paper and I will be getting it out and having a go ! Thank you for taking time to comment.🥰
@@gaynorpattle looking forward to hear of your thoughts on ricepaper.
Look out Vikki Reed: Gelli Printing on rice paper
Thank you Hanne Marie, I will take a look.
So….they say that you choose colours to paint with that you are …or like to wear. Doesn’t it put you in mind of the snake plants????
This makes me smile X
