I love your videos ❤ You don’t use the most expensive materials which makes me know I can be and artist without having to run out and buy this or that from the art stores. Which as you know can be very expensive. You don’t try to sale me classes. You show me that I can do what you do! You are a confidence builder and a great artist.Thank You so much!
Each time I see that you've added a video, I get excited to watch it. I really enjoy your process. Your color choices and layering techniques get me thinking out of the box. Anytime I think to myself "Well, that's an odd choice." or "I wouldn't do that." I find myself pleasantly surprised by the outcome. You achieve some really fantastic and unique results. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!
I feel the same way. It's so encouraging!
I absolutely loved this video. Each one is unique and exquisite. And to be perfectly honest, I didn’t think any of them needed collage additions. Thank you so much. Couldn’t take my eyes off of this video.
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful, unique artwork and your process of creating them. Your techniques and guidelines are straightforward and well explained. It's such an inspiration and joy to watch you work. My Gelli Plates are exciting again! I anticipate each new video, the interesting concepts, color combinations I wouldn't have thought of, and the simple, effective tips I know I'll be learning.
Thanks so much!
When they said "you pulled it off", they must have thought of you. 5 wonderful geli prints pulled off. :)
So true!
Love these Sutlej yellow cream prints. ❤
colors contrast & blend...Zen delivery blends actions...no wonder yr audience diversity is inspired...
The gel medium is good because it bonds well with the acrylic paint because they're made from the same stuff, and you can use it as an overall protective sealant. You really did well to get all those wonderful prints, when you're experimenting again, with the past bit of paint on the plate you can put gel medium over it and it can get pretty much the last drop of paint off the plate. Such wonderful results!
Orange gold green reminds me of Klimt. Beautiful!
I just commented about Klimt, who I adore, on another video. Great minds, lol.
Another winner idea. I think I would have stopped before the green.
Thank you for another interesting video. So many to catchup on, every one a treat. ❤........Alioban
I love every video! The collages are fantastic.
Hello Fulton. I really enjoy your experiments as I love pushing materials to see what happens also. You can flatten the plastic by gently heating with a hairdryer then placing under weight to cool. You further monotype printmaking for many by experimenting and I too appreciate it. Keep on keeping on. You make printmaking interesting.
They are all so gorgeous!!!
i laughed out when I heard nasty noise 😂 I learned a lot from your videos, thanks
I see different pictures, stories, in each one. It’s as if I were a child again looking up at clouds & seeing people & places. They are absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your careful and thoughtful demonstrations. It is such a pleasure to watch a true artist. You are always inspiring.
thanks for watching!
Loved seeing these! Beautiful ghost prints. I love brayering off my roller onto scrap paper, especially metallics - they make great collage fodder.
Thanks Kathy!
Robyn McClendon does wonderful collage material for her “junk-journals” as part of her gelli-print sessions. She likes to discharge her brayer on a broad variety of surfaces from rice paper to vintage book-pages. She incorporates them in collage work after. It makes for a cohesive body of work, as her palette colour choices contributing a certain cohesion to her ‘oeuvre’.
Oh wow My favorite ❤ beautiful composition, Simply gorgeous, All beautiful
Thank you so much!
Great!!!!
Wow!!!!
This session was so beneficial. Very inspiring. Thank you.
❤️🙏
😊Love every minute! Beautiful prints! I have new respect for your process and results, since I began working with the 16 x 20 gel plate. It's quite a bit more difficult than the smaller plates- from composition to finding that just-right amount of ink to pull the print. As you continually show us- curiosity rules!
Hi, sweet Fulton! Watching this..and finding myself all nervous, of whether the medium will dry transparently! 🤣 Geez..talking about getting personally involved!!🤣🌸🌿
Thanks Michele, that's so sweet of you 🙏😘
Impressive that all five pulls were different and beautiful. Thank you for continuing to share your sessions, watching is most enjoyable.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Thanks for watching!
You are in the zone Art Whisperer. The oiled plate makes the marks that much sharper producing satisfying results.
WOW!
I wonder if an acrylic slow-dri medium would help pull off more of the acrylic paint - but I do enjoy greatly the grunge look! The last pull produce very special textural look. All prints turned out crazy good!
“I think I’m getting the hang of this.” LOL - honestly, Fulton, I find you very encouraging 😊- thanks.
❤️❤️❤️
Hi, Fulton!🙋♀️…..I’ve already viewed this…..and suddenly, “wow”! I see & am experiencing…different acknowledgments, “visually”! Interesting! Thank you, Fulton!
Merci pour l'idée d'utiliser des intercalaires plastique de couleurs pour y découper des pochoirs, c'est très pratique, on les voit bien sur la gel plaque. Vivement vos prochaines vidéos. Portez vous bien.
Merci d'avoir regardé! 😘
P.S. Super cool, darlin’. So beautifully modern…I dig it completely!
Merci pour cette généreuse vidéo.
Les résultats et détails sont étonnants.
Another winner.
Enjoy your videos. I find gelli printing to be fun and creative. I use baren and find it helpful in applying pressure to produce a print.
The last pull is beautiful!
Awesome, as usual! I LOVED all 5 - I think your "bottom of the barrel" was my fave, though the water lily pond was a close second!
Yes I squeezed everything I could out of the last print! thanks for watching!
These are some of my favourites you've ever done. Love em
i always roll off then use the papers as collage later. Also, you mentioned a barron. Go buy yourself some Dove or Jergens that comes in a round smooth topped JAR. a friend of mine uses a similar disc shape and overs it with large leaves like banana or bamboo but I imagine you can use corn husks
To get the matt medium off, I found it comes off easier when I soak my fingers in hot water for a few seconds and keep rubbing them together under the water, the glue starts to roll off. Seems to work better before you put soap on.
Love this ❤
Phenomenal run! Thank you!
I ADORE This ONE!
Thanks for sharing! Just beautiful!
It is so nice 👍
❤
This was a great one! Thanks.
Beautiful!!!!
Thank you!!
I have been wondering what to do with the “ fails “ I have that are to good to throw away! Thanks for sharing your awesome ideas!😊
Hard to decide which I liked best.
Scribbles....do you have shapes that grab... comb kind of thing? or other ways to make scribbles more intricate than circles and arcs? I have made many with toilet paper rolls and glueing on pieces of rubber mats, paper, cardboard, seeds, rubber bands, yarn... etc. then you roll them by hand and then you can also use the paint that is now on them from the imprint to ghost your marks. This video has given me more ideas. Also stopping rolling too much is good.
I LOVE that pull at 32:38. All of these make me want to go grab my gelli plate! TFS! ~Velvet
I should have mentioned how much I love the collages too!
Thanks Velvet!
Re use of a brayer, I haven’t tried a rolling pin, but I do have a tool used to smooth wallpaper when installing it, that I’ve used on the large plate with success. It is like a kind of rigid squeegee, but it has a rounded edge so it will smooth the paper without tearing it. Cheap, at the paint store!

Five prints! I’ve started trying to second guess where you will place your collage pieces. It always seems just right. Less is more.😊 Do you varnish your finished paintings?
I rarely varnish, the ideal home for a print is behind glass in a proper frame. You have to be careful with varnishes, some of them do not age well or change color with time.
The pulls are really nice! I especially liked the last one! Not fond of the added stencils. They would have made a nice triptych. Thank you for the demos!
I’ve had real good luck with applying a thin layer of watery Mod Podge (gloss or matte) on paper that tends to tear,
love that stuff! Thanks for watching!
The more you add more colors and work with taking more prints, your original paint will come off.
Some of the ghost images could be taken up by tissue paper and used as collage too.
Loved but kind of missed your voice!
Thanks Tonya! Sometimes when I am extremely focused its hard to talk at the same time! Thanks for watching!
You and @Patricia Stewart are my fave gell plate artists. You both have a unique perspective
Yes, you got it! Check out irridescent paints, a minimum of, and you go further.. NICE NICE. I cannot wait for tomorrow to use your ideas. thank you for stretching my art. I hope you sold this one! the only bad thing is that the big paper causes a big frame which is expensive. Buyers never consider that!!!
These are all fabulous but I am n love with ghost print #2. Do you see you work? Also, how do you make the scribble sheets you use for collage? Can you do a video demonstrating that? I’m a big fan of your work - I check to see if you’ve put up another video each day. It’s so exciting to see there is a new one. Thank you for sharing your work & your method.
Thanks Lynn! Here's a link to my scribble making video czcams.com/video/gmqLazL4_s8/video.html Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! I can’t wait to play today!!!! Next question - do you ever do classes or one on one? I live in NYC too & could make it to wherever you are.
@@lynnwayne542 email me at fulton@fultonartdesign.com
Thank you for sharing!!
Do you work in any other mediums (is that the correct term) - or solely gelli plate monoprinting?
I used to paint on canvas, but paintings occupy a lot of space! Will try again soon.
Can you tell me what the ‘tool’ is that you use for mark making on the gel plate? Thank you so much. I love your prints!
wooden stick, a chopstick or twig does fine as well.
Thanks for this great video. Is it possible to mention the type paper being used each time?
thanks for your recommendation. i just realized that many viewers watch on their smartphones, not their pcs, so they don't see the description box right away. Although the link for paper is in the description box, it is easier if I just say the name of the paper off the bat. 💖💖
How did you apply the ghost print with mod podge? Did you just put it on the jelly late? Thank you!
Hi Paula, the ghost print is made of acrylic paint. The Mod Podge is used only for applying the collaged pieces of paper. Watch the video several times to get the idea. Thanks!
What type of paper is your favorite to use? I didn't catch that. Thank you! Great videos!

Thank you!!!!! @artwhisperer88 !!!
I watched some of your print videos. Very impressive. But I wonder if the plate shoudn´t be run through a press together with the paper instead of pressing by hand.
Would love to have a press! But I live in a small New York City apartment!
@@artwhisperer88 Thanks, so there is no technical reason. One could run a gelli plate through a press?
@@nikhe60 I guess you could, as an experiment, but I don't recommend it because eventually the gel plate will get damaged by extreme pressure. It wasn't designed for that.
Do you only need to condition one side of the gelli plate?
I do the side that I print on, the other side needs to be extra sticky to grab the tabletop. When it's time to flip it over I oil that side.
Perhaps you discussed this & I missed it?, but these prints are a bit different, it seems to me, from those I’ve seen up to this point (I am traveling back in time as I watch your videos). Could it be that you are using the ends of tubes which are drying more quickly, making it harder to pull? Don’t get me wrong - I like these ghost prints very much. I may be off base of course about the paint consistency. Was just wondering. 😊
These videos are really explorations, each result is meant to be different!
@@artwhisperer88 Got it. Makes sense.
What is that white flat thing you are using to smooth the paper?
could you show the timestamp on the video
can you tell me what type of paper you use and the size? thank you ...wonderful videos
it's in the description box, size is 22 in. x 30 in.
i dont see anything in the description. but thank you for letting me know the size. @@artwhisperer88

@@artwhisperer88 thank you. so sorry completely missed that. thank you again for such inspiration.
That's ok Sue. I wanted to make sure I am not negligent in providing information! I could swear I put that info out there!@@suerothberg143
I left mine on a silicone sheet and it distorted it.
Ask yourself maybe.....Why don't you let the collage pieces touch each other.. They are always placed away. Left side brained thinking stops you? Your first print was a masterpiece, BTW. You have a lot of talent, I am following you and your ideas.
I love these so much until the collage. `I am one of those people that if a semi circle can be a mouth, I start to see a face. Its so tricky to collage without making things that look like things. Its made worse for me if an 'eye' is red as it then looks gory. Cant help it I just see things most people don't see and once I see it, I can't let it pass.
Oy gevalt! I suggest speaking to your primary care doctor.
