Gelliplate printing is a vibrant, effective, and quick printing technique. It is a type of monoprinting, where you use gelatin-like plates and colourful inks to create beautiful designs.
This workshop is perfect for enjoying quality time with friends or family. It's a fantastic print technique in which adults and children alike can access at their own level; everyone's artwork is different. You will roll the ink out onto the plate before placing stencils or objects over it and then printing onto a surface. It's fun, soothing, and makes totally unique artwork. Just watch and see what you create!
