Thanks so much, Belinda. I've been following you for some years, here in London, and really appreciate your generosity and useful tips, It especially gives me support when you mention the things that might go wrong and how you rectify them. They are quite often remedial techniques that I also do, but didn't know that it was correct, and it's very helpful when printing not to be always nervous about one's technique. May I ask how, when you are wiping a plate that you have inked up in several colours, you prevent one colour from smudging into the next. The usual wiping technique would definitely make smudging happen, but your finished inked up plates look perfect. Once again, thanks so much for all your help and inspiration. Your work is very lovely, particularly in the way you capture light and make the ordinary beautiful. Kind regards, Anne

Hello Anne - thank you for such kind words and encouragement. I’m so glad to know my ramblings are helpful. And just so you know, everything I’m sharing has been learned through trial and ERROR. The mistakes and foibles are an integral part of printmaking, so don’t be fearful about “doing it wrong”. If it fails, you simply adjust and try again. For full color wiping, I let the colors smudge along the boundaries. Instead of wiping in a linear fashion, I mostly apply the scrim to a color area on the plate and rotate my wrist in a stationary coil - like I’m tracking the hands of a click around the face of a dial. No side to side or up/down motion. More of a twist in place. Does that make sense?

Hi Vivian - I hope you’ve taken the leap and started to experiment with gel plate printmaking, or monotypes from recycled plastic. It’s So Fun!
@Bella-d1v9y 2 ай бұрын
Is it a monotype or monoprint? I don't see a difference except that the word "monotype" lets you know it is not a manufactured print.
@bdelpesco 12 күн бұрын
Hi Bella, the primary difference between Monotype and Monoprint (which is always debatable between artists, FYI) is that monotype is pigment, alone; there is no repeatable pattern applied by a carved block, a stencil, an embossed plate, etc. It’s a single print, made from pigments manipulated on a smooth plate, transferred to paper. A monoprint is also a single print, but with some repeatable element, like a carved block, an etched plate, a stencil… something affecting the marks between the pigment and the plate, or the pigment and the paper. If you want to make a monotype, it’s just you, a smooth plate, pigments and your paper. I hope that helps.

Very, very informative. And you give us so many ways to be creative with this medium. But using Akua ink for other projects, I have trouble getting the ink to dry. Did you wait any time between tracing and painting? I am now a subscriber!
@bdelpesco 11 күн бұрын
Hi Bella, Akua requires absorption to dry…. You can leave it out on a slab for weeks (ask me how I know) and it will not air dry, which is excellent when you need time to ink a plate or make your design in the pigments. Be sure to use paper that has little or no sizing - like Arches 88. Sizing blocks absorption, so the ink has nowhere to go. My prints all dry overnight, and I live near the ocean. :) Thanks for your feedback, and happy printing.

Thanks for this Belinda. I’ve been experimenting with print-making, but not ready to buy a press. I’ve used a barren for block prints, but it looks like a spoon is best for dry point. Thanks for the tips! 🎉
@bdelpesco 2 ай бұрын
Hi there Ed! Yes, a spoon works, but it’s still a little tricky depending on your ability to hold the paper in place, whether it’s dampened, how much stretch it has, etc. if you’re interested in a great press hack using small stenciling and embossing craft machines to print (beautifully), check out Colin Blanchard’s fb group Craft Press Printmakers. Using a tiny stenciling machine with a long cutting board can produce full editions: m.facebook.com/groups/1544918272204523/?

So enjoyed your video. I’m going to try the Bristol paper. I very much agree to not make our art work too precious. I once found freedom by cutting up several canvasses that were just not working My husband thought I’d gone crazy lol. Since then I feel a greater freedom to experiment and have fun. Thank you for sharing your talents
@bdelpesco 3 ай бұрын
Hi Deborah! Yes, cutting up older work can be so liberating! A friend of mine has a bonfire for herself and fellow artists to burn their older paintings out in the yard after a barbecue every few years, and I think it’s wonderful that she does it with other artist friends. The conversation about avoiding preciousness, and focusing on the acquisition of skill and muscle memory rather than the pursuit of accolades must be wonderful at such an event. Happy painting to you. I hope the Bristol is fun!

how do you obtain the very dark areas of the print?
@bdelpesco 3 ай бұрын
Hi Alison, The incised lines on the plate create shallow grooves that will hold ink. If you watch the video, you'll see my hands applying lots of cross-hatching into the surface of the plate with a sharp scribe, and those scratches hold ink, even after careful wiping. Watch this video to see a color version of engraving, and then inking and wiping: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZilhmeBdtKKorssi=XG3CaPHH7Pq2EC9A

@bdelpesco 5 ай бұрын
Hi Cheryl, Yes, it can be printed with a spoon back, but the more detail and line work, and the bigger the print, the more challenging the transfer. Rubbing moves the paper, especially if it’s been dampened, so it’s difficult to get control on your line work. If your print is small, and there’s limited detail, it’s easier to accomplish: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmfRg4qNabWJb68si=TWF9XyOriin2LfMt Thanks for your feedback. :)
