I prefer silence to the obnoxious music so many CZcamsrs play. I assume it’s because they are using free music. Love this video. Thank you!
Good, glad you like the video. Thanks for watching.
No need to apologise for silence. I find it annoying when people blab endlessly and pointlessly. Thanks for sharing this! Will definitely try it
Cheers 👍🏻
@@gelwithmarkditto… very pop arty and an interesting process, thanks for sharing. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤
@@jdmosaics my pleasure, thanks for taking the time to view.
When i first started watching this video, i thought, "Why not just make the print, complete, then add the Posca pens at the end?" But, seeing the final results, i gladly admit that i was wrong -Bravo!
Yes you are right I could do that and then again you could also say why not just paint the whole picture and do away with the gel plate entirely, I guess for me I like to try and make a complete print all in one go without a 2nd step afterwards ie like adding the pen afterwards and 2, I like the surprise at the end of seeing how the marks have translated into creating the print and that for me is in the magic of using a gel plate.
Thanks for watching.
Awesome image!! I love that you use strange and unusual images -- they're cool and eye-catching. Don't sweat the moments of silence either -- seeing your process is very interesting and rewarding in itself. This print came out great! Thank you so much for sharing the creation of this! 👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌
Thank you. It’s nice to hear that you enjoyed it.
Terrific. Like nothing else I've seen on gel plate. Refreshingly interesting and whole new thinking for me. Thx
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
So good! Great image! ty so much for sharing! Also TY for no music. It is sometimes hard to hear the artist for the music.... It is great to hear your thought process and artistic tips throughout. Your print turned out fantastic.👍👍
Thanks I appreciate it. It’s good to know that you found the vid informative.
I've never seen anyone use such thick paint. Gell plates are even more versatile than I thought! How exciting!!! This opens up more possibilities for my art practice
Yes, I probably sometimes over kill the amount of paint I need but I’d rather be safe than sorry.
She turned out beautifully. I picked up a few tips, which will help me in the future. I especially like the stacking of books, while the paint dries. Thank you, Mark. You have a new subbie.
@@cheryl7476 thank you glad you found some helpful tips.
i like that you pulled the gelli plate rather than pulling (and curling) the paper. thanks for the cool tutorial. nice experiment!
Thanks. Yes I feel this puts less stress on the paper.
This is really neat! I didnt realize you could let the paint dry so ive always been in a rush to keep the plate wet. But this makes so much more possible!! Thank you for this video!
Glad it has helped. All you need to be wet is the final layer before you add your paper. 👍🏻
Great video, lots of great tips! (Pastel pencil, Posca markers, and the fact that you layer the paint and let it sit for so long before you pull it) I have limited techniques with a gel plate - so this is very exciting. Watched your video a few times already :)
Thanks. Glad you like it. Any questions just ask and I’ll try and answer if I can.
I love how you have mastered the ability to do the backward thought process of your desired result. Thanks for sharing your process.
Thanks for the comment
I like the quiet times , it gives me time to process my thoughts! Fabulous video. Thanks 🎉
Thanks. Glad you found it useful.
Amazing! I have all my gel plates on acrylic plates so I can flip them over once in a while to see what I'm going to get. There's a great company in the UK who sells acrylic sheets made to measure at a relatively low cost. You can get any thickness, size, rounded corners etc.
If you place your gel plate directly onto the picture you want to replicate, you can skip the first step with the graphite pencil and trace directly onto your plate with the Posca pens. However you won't get the black line so you'll have to add that in.
Thanks. Yes I have done a lot of drawing direct onto my plate in the way that you have mentioned but I currently quite like doing the pastel/charcoal transfer as a part of my process. I’ve tried using the acrylic sheets also but I have run into problems in the past when trying to get the plate off of my paper as I like to pull the plate up off of my paper instead of pulling the paper as I find I put less stress on the paper, but with the acrylic sheet on that doesn’t give me the flexibility that I need to be able to achieve this. Plus for me, I don’t like to look at the underside of the plate, I like the surprise of the reveal when it comes to time to pull! Thanks for the tips though.
I am not an artist, never heard of a gel plate until I started junk journaling a few months ago. Wanted to know what else to do with gel plate and this is amazing! I love how you described your thinking/process and explained so well that even I could give it a go for fun. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it, that’s nice to hear.
Silence is good. I’m quite happy to not have music playing during tutorial.
I’ll listen to my tunes when by myself and experimenting with my pens & bits . Thank you.
My pleasure. 👍🏻
Brilliant! Best instruction on gel plate. Loved it. 🌟🙌
Thanks
Silences are great - calming in a world of noise. Thanks for some great ideas. Much appreciated!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
I love your channel! So glad I found ya:) I agree...I think most people prefer that you're just being relaxed and I don't mind the quiet at all. Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable and that vibe will be passed to your audience❤...Thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
Thanks you for the kind words, I appreciate it. Glad you like my stuff.
Very fun! I look forward to trying this. Also, I appreciate the general quiet tone of your video.
Thank you, glad you liked it.
So cool! I love that you can get a screen print feel without all the faff!
And being quiet….don’t stress as your artistry does the talking.
Thanks.
Yes it’s nice to be able to get something similar but it’s not perfect, but with perfecting it can look pretty close I think.
Fantastic video Mark, really inspiring can’t wait to try this it opens up so many possibilities.You really explained it well .The silences are grand, and your voice is easy on the ears.Look forward to watching more of your videos.Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I’m glad you have founds some value in what I’m sharing.
i like the silence. there is too much noise out there. we need more silent pauses. this video was really inspiring thank you.
Thank you. I’m glad you like it.
I love your technique! Very unlike most of the other gelli plate artists. You have led me down the path less followed.much appreciated!
Thank you I’m glad you like what I make and show. Yes that was also my intention to try and make something much less seen. 👍🏻
Beautiful! I have not seen anyone do such a detailed piece on the gel plate. Thank you!
My pleasure, thank you.
Awesome print!
Cheers
what a great technique. loved your thought process without any music. thank you for sharing. so glad to have discover your channel.
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
Nice and sharp. The detailed pattern on shirt pulls the whole thing together.
Your technique is individualistic and appreciated.
Gelli as fine arts form of people's art still has the stamp of novelty for me, and there are likely to be many more discoveries by practitioners edging forward.
Fair enough. Thanks for the comment.
AWESOME! LOVED IT✅✅✅🐝
Thank you.
Again a terrifically whacky image wedded to a great technique ,ah be still my beathing heart! Thank you !!! , Often I will see a techinqur which does not enhance the image, or add to the emotional tenor of the piece. indeed double Brilliant.
Thanks 🙏🏼
Wow, that is a fantastic technique...I havn't seen this before !!!
Thanks
Wow, that was really exciting when you pulled the print. What an excellent tutorial. Learned so much again. Thank you for the clear explanation. No worries about the silences or the lack of music. All that noise would just be distracting in this case. Your channel certainly deserves much more attention. I immediately subscribed.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤
Ah thank you so much. Glad you found it informative and fun to watch. Every subscriber helps so thanks for the support!
Me too….!! 🤗🤗
@@sheilacym thanks
Shocking to see the layers pull up so well. I live in a very dry area ( desert) so my paint, pens etc dry in light speed and can pull the paper onto the plate. I use medium to slow the paint drying but it can be frustrating when you're on the third pull and the paper rips. I use Strathmore or Somerset. Very interesting video.
Hmm my country isn’t that dry so I don’t really have that problem. Have tried or can you try building up all the layers like I do first, as I tend to dry each additional colour before laying down my next colour then maybe trying a slightly thicker layer for the very last layer, your wet layer, then putting the paper down and leaving it to dry for a good hour or two before trying to pull? I alway put a weight on top of my paper when it’s on the plate to make sure I get a good even contact.
Very cool ! Amazing & Inspiring …. I can’t wait to play !
Thanks you. Have fun!
I love your technique, you explain it very well and I don't mind the silent periodes at all. Great print, thanks Mark!
Thank you
Thanks for answering the Posca pen on a gelli plate question!!
No problem
I LOVE this technique! So many options this opens up! And…silence is golden, and all that. I enjoyed this very much. So happy to have found you! Cheers!
You are so welcome!
Very cool! I really appreciate that you don't have music in the background. I am totally fine with silence when you are not talking. In fact it is quite a relief from some of the videos I see.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Thank you :) a thoughtful and very effective use of the materials, very well explained, I love your approach to the gel plate.
Thank you for the message, that’s kind of you to say. Glad you liked it.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this, thank you!
Great. Thanks 👍🏻
Wow!!! I love her❣ It was exciting for me to watch the pull. I was hoping all your work would reveal itself as it did. Thanks for the close-up camera work and commentary.
Thanks. Glad you liked it. I like the surprise at the reveal too that’s why I never look at the underside of the plate. Glad the close ups helped, I’ll make sure I keep doing that in my next videos. 👍🏻
WOW! I am standing here beside myself in awe!! BRILLIANT!! I can only imagine all the HOURS YOU put into this technique. It shows and I am very grateful you have shared this! Really like the silence as well... music can be great or extremely irritating, but silence is welcomed;)
Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it. Glad you liked it.
Whoa. Just getting into Gelli prints and I had NO idea what is possible. Amazing.
Yes you and do so much more that just the commercial stencils and journal page work with one of these versatile tools!
Love this, Mark! Fabulous process......I am your new devotee!!❤
Thank you. Welcome! 🙂
Can't wait to try the charcoal pencil transfer. Deep bow of gratitude for the time and knowledge you are sharing this way. 🙏
@@carolynking5418 my pleasure. Let me know how you get on!
Great techniques! I learnt a lot - thank you 👌
Glad to help.
So cool 😎 , thanks again for sharing this. If you were printing on a paper with a background, you could skip the background painting part by using a thin coat of acrylic binder/ or mat medium over your character to capture the paint and do your print with transparent background.
Cheers 😊
Thanks. Yes I use the Matt medium method a fair bit but I like to try and do a complete print in one go to achieve a single pull print, it’s just the method I like to do. I have found that even though the gel medium is clear it still has a slight whitish tint to it, after drying, and that it has a slight sheen to it also even though it is Matt, and I don’t personally like seeing these two things on my prints.
Thanks for the advice though.
Love,love,love it.
Thanks
Dude, your video thumbnail is epic!😂
😁thanks. I’ve been struggling to come up with good thumbnails for my videos, I appreciate the comment.
Love that. Thankyou soooooo much. Sooo inspiring.
Thanks glad in was of value to you!

Love this! so instructional! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love it!
Thanks
Love this!!!!!💥🎉
Thanks
This is brilliant! I would buy it in a gallery if I saw it and had some money. This is the second video of yours that I’ve watched and I enjoyed both immensely. Your voice has a beautiful deep timber that is relaxing without being boring or making anyone want to go to sleep. But, really, it’s all about the art, isn’t it? I love the images you find. I think how you then use them and a gel plate to create interesting, mesmerizing art is nothing short of brilliant! Of course, I immediately subscribed. I can’t wait to try this technique myself and I really want to thank you for being so generous as to share your techniques with the world. Oh, and silence is fine with me. I’m usually concentrating deeply with you with slightly held breath so the silence feels natural. I am a huge fan now and I can’t wait to see what’s next!!
Well that’s a very kind and generous message, thank you. I’m glad you like what I share and find value in it. I haven’t done a video for a while but I’ve plans of a few coming up, I just have to make the prints and to video the process so watch this space.
Thanks for subscribing it’s appreciated 🙂
Great technique, thank you for sharing
My pleasure
Great video! I don’t mind the silence either. If you need music tho, maybe you could wear ear pods? I like music in my ear when I work so I totally get that 😁
Thanks, good idea.
Wow thats awesome!!
Thanks
That’s amazing ❤
Thanks ☺️
Fascinating!
Thanks
Thank you. Very helpful

My pleasures
Great technique looks amazing love it
Thanks
This is fantastic!
Thanks
Super cool!! I just found you today and really inspired. Thank you 😊 ⭐️
BTW silence is fine with me
Thanks. Glad you like my stuff.
Could I ask how you found me?
Was it through search? or did my stuff show up on your feed? I’m just interested. 🙂
I was following Yeates Makes and you popped up under his video. I like the different take men have (is that sexiest?😂) and searched. I enjoy ArtWhisperer88 too.
@@LizB55 yes Yeates makes is the channel that inspired me a lot when I was just starting out. I’ve seen artwhisperer88 also, he is good at what he does but I kind of find his videos a little similar each time, but that’s just personal preference.
VERY Nice...had no clue you could have such detail with gel printing.
Now you know! Thanks for watching.
How cool! Thanks for the video. 😊
No problem, thanks for watching.
So enjoyed this. Feeling inspired now
Cool. Glad to hear it!
Amazing work!! Love it.
Thank you, that’s very kind 🙏🏼
Wonderful! Great colors! Exciting!
Cheers 👍🏻
Wow! I just ordered a gelli plate and can’t wait to get started. I was so nervous when you covered everything with the pink paint (gorgeous color, BTW). I was sure it was going to bleed into the lavender color. Great video, very inspiring
Thanks. As long as the layer’s underneath are dry you won’t really get bleed. Hope you have fun with experimenting with the gel plate, it’s a very enjoyable hobby!
Ohhh!!! I’ve been watching your videos forever and everything you do is so so inspiring. This is incredible
Thanks for sharing, Mark. I like your style.
Thanks
I love watching your process and how you explain it so clearly. Thank you, its all very helpful.
My pleasure, thanks for watching.
That's amazing
Thanks
Super cool! Thanks for sharing
Thanks. My pleasure.
Thank you for showing us all the possibilities.
My pleasure, thanks for taking the time to watch.
Amazing video! Thank you for sharing!❤️🌹
My pleasure. Thanks
Amazing - so interesting ! Thanks heaps !
No problem, my pleasure.
Wow this is great! I definitely want to try this. And I loved the outcome. Thank you for sharing
Cool glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Wow…an amazing technique! Thanks!
Thanks
I like this process, very unique combination of color. That’s thinking outside the box!
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
Wow Mark amazing. I am going to try this with Molotov pens. Really love the video’s don’t apologize. They are a sort of meditation, looking at the gell plate and seeing the result. Keep on doing it this way.
I did one with Molotov acrylic pens after seeing your video and it worked as well. Also the hairdryer…
Thanks that’s great feedback to hear. I’ve used a Molotov pen before, the big 30mm one and it worked fine for me so you shouldn’t have any trouble I wouldn’t think!
@@gelwithmark I pulled a little bit too early so a bit distressed picture bit looks really good even with the distortion
@@didodebeer1960 cool, glad it’s working for you.
incredible!
Thank you.
Interesting process! Thanks for the video.
Thanks. My pleasure.
Ok ty
Love it 😳
Thank you
Fantastic Technique!
Thanks
Amazing!
Thanks
You are so neat and keep everything so clean! This is an amazing process and had to write the steps down to try. Awesome videos and super helpful. Can't wait for more videos! Thank you!
Haha I have to been neat as my printing studio is my kitchen dining table so I have to pack everything away each time I print 😩
