  • I'll be honest, this is my first try making gel prints in black and white. Even though I wear black and white almost exclusively . . . in my art I love color. The brighter the better. But every one of my collages has a little black for contract. Well not every one but close.
    So I wanted to try making gelli prints in black and white to see if I liked it. I'm still on the fence on this. What do you think?

    Do you love contrast? Adding a little black and white always makes me happy.

      Love this video. I can see now where I was making mistakes using stencils: too much paint, not waiting for dry time... thanks so much.

      I enjoyed this. I am just getting more heavily into collage and noticed I have the same situation - all colored papers and almost no neutrals m. I feel a play session coming on! Thank you!

    The print you made at about minute 21 and didn't like, the 'blurry' one, was my favorite! The second pull from the 'ball' stencil was my second favorite. Such a fun printing session 🙂

    That second bubble pull is a beautiful slightly grunge look. Love it! Rice paper is THE BEST for finer stencils ☝️🙏

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před rokem +1

      I agree. The results I get with the rice paper is best. I like collaging with copy paper. Easier to work with and less transparent. So I do a mixture.

    Lovely work! ❤ I'm lying is hospital watching your tutorials. So relaxing. Thanks for sharing.❤ My only small criticism is that you need to use more sheets of paper when you're brayering off so that the colours on those scrap sheets don't get all mixed together and the ink isn't wasted. Because you can utilise those scrap sheets.

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před rokem +2

      I hope it's not something serious. Feel better soon. I used to save all the off sheets but I never use them. So I stopped caring. LOL

    I am enjoying your videos so much. I love Gelli printing, doing and watching, endless effects and possibilities. Just a tip, cheap white tissue paper from the $ store works much better to get the paint from the nooks and crannies, than copy paper, it can also be used as collage fodder. Thanks for another inspiring video!💕🇨🇦

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před rokem

      I also use that. I was probably out of it that day. Also I recently purchased deli paper that I don't like too much but it picks up the paint in the crannies even better than the tissue. So at least I found a use for it.

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před rokem

      I hear ya! Even here I think it's expensive. But I always go back to it. I shouldn't use it for gelli printing but I find it the easiest to work with. I tried Blick fluid acrylics and wasted my money. they don't work on a gelli plate. What paint do you use? 😎

    • @suzijorgensen6545

      @@SusanCliftonArtist I have a few different brands....
      For the gelli plate I use a brand called Jo Sonja, and it's higher flow than most. I aslo use Liquitext, which is slightly thicker viscosity paint. Liquitext have a heavier bodied paint called A2 and it's DEFINITELY not as thick as Atelier heavy body, but it's worth it because that range, in Australia, has more colour options than the LIQUITEXT. Jo Sonja is a craft paint, but it's range is wide, colour wise. It's tricky trying to combine the different brands, but! I'm getting around that issue with different flow mediums. Thanks for your response 🙏

      I have been working on improving that. Thanks for the kind way you mentioned the music. I have had truly bad comments about it on a few videos where I didn't notice the music was super loud in spots. If you notice on my newer posts I have turned the music down but it still adds ambiance. I'd love to get your feedback. Thanks for watching and for your comments.

    How do you gelli print on tissue paper? It seems like it would tear. I looked to see if you had a video with a demo, haven’t found one yet. I am new to your channel and love it. Keep up the awesome work!

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před 11 měsíci

      I will do that soon. Most of the time I use the tissue to pick up the paint in the detailed areas of the stencils. But then they make nice collage paper. It can tear. You just have to be careful. I heard there is a wet strength tissue but here in the United States I haven't found it yet. I will share if I do.

    Nice instruction, you have a great voice delivery but would love it more without music since it’s distracting in a tutorial and makes it harder to concentrate on what you are saying.

    What is the difference between a stencil and a mask?

    • @SusanCliftonArtist
      @SusanCliftonArtist  Před rokem +2

      It's more or less the positive or negative of a design. If you cut a circle out of a square the circle you cut out is the mask and paper with a hole in it is your stencil. It's harder to explain than I thought.

    Just a short comment - why Not drop the music? It doesn’t really add anything and def distracts from your lesson. Which is too bad really.

    I can’t stand watching you use big sheets of paper on a small plate. Such a waste. You do know we cut down trees to create copy paper, right?
