    This is one of the best explanations of how to get the effects you want using transparent or opaque.

    Thank you so much!!! I have been watching videos about gel printing for weeks... I have spent HOURS... and this is the first time anyone has explained opacity vs transparency such that it makes TOTAL sense. Many, many thanks!!!

    That was the right information for me ! My prints would be much better if i used the transparency and opacity of the paint, but als the possibility of repositioning the masks or stencils gives huge possibillities. Thanks for this great video.

    Great video, as per usual. I really like the way Marsha used the differing opacities of the paints and simple masks to create abstract landscapes.

    @kateives1274 Před 4 lety +1

    Thanks so much for this video! I found it extremely helpful to see examples of the different ways to use transparent/opaque paints together. It also explained why my prints may not have turned out the way I thought they would! 🤓

    Great information. I've been trying to figure out which paint brands offer the widest selections in viscosity and transparency. I bought acrylic high viscosity paint recently from Michael's, Artists Loft, since they had a couple of transparent colors that I wanted. Unfortunately I'm finding it to be very difficult to work with no matter if I water it down a bit or add matte medium. It just doesn't roll out on the plate very well. I might be spoiled since I previously purchased Golden brand Phthalo Blue which is very easy to work with but expensive. I'm also finding the inexpensive craft paints at Michael's such as FolkArt to be surprisingly easy to work with on gel plates.

    Love this. What was the "tape" you used to adhere the masks? Thx.

    • @marshavalk
      @marshavalk Před 4 lety +4

      Hi Rick, In the video I use a repositionable adhesive dot roller. However, any temporary adhesive will do. Even a folded loop of washi tape!

  • @hurricanekitty6736
    @hurricanekitty6736 Před 3 lety

    You pull a print @5:57 that appears to have a large pair of slightly opened lips just below & to the right of the top circle mask & just above yet parallel to the bottom mask. This is the 2nd time today I watched a video & could CLEARLY make out an image that was so organic on production that those who produced them had no idea lol I hope other ppl can see what I see otherwise I may legit be losing my mind lol

  • @evelinehondius1258
    @evelinehondius1258 Před 3 lety

    Great video, came for the opacity part because I want to partially cover an old drawing, just really wondering what brand that adhesive is and where you get it...

    Beautiful. What is your favorite paints to work with. Do you think dylusions will work?

    • @marshavalk
      @marshavalk Před 4 lety +1

      Thanks Judith! I don’t have a favourite brand, however I do like student or professional grade paints. If by Dylusions you mean the paint then: yes! If you mean the sprays then the answer is yes, but with a twist. There’s a video by Birgit on this channel about using sprays. Let me see if I can find it.

    So, judging by the “opaque” colors you use here, there are no completely opaque paint colors, although Titan Green Pale and Teal (both Golden) may be as close as you can get. And by the “squares” on the paint tubes, do you mean the rectangles? One tube had a square and a rectangle, so … ?
