Really like the simplicity of this print without too many colors. Fun to look back at pic from our youth.

I love that this was a one shot and needed absolutely nothing else. It’s a beautiful piece.

I discovered Gel Printing thanks to your videos and I love it! Your work is fascinating! And this little return to the past is a very good idea and allows us to get to know you a little better... For several months, I have been passionate about this technique which I now practice regularly with great pleasure. All thanks to your informative videos! This is why it is also important for me to be able to put a face to my "personal coach"... That's it! Very beautiful piece and this size of plate is fantastic ! Christian, from France.

[@iwilso01]

Yes, very cool Fulton. It transferred amazingly well.

[@georgetteganne8640]

Thanks for sharing your earlier work. Love it yet...I like today's work even more. You are the 'youngin', as I graduated University with a Fine Arts degree in 1976. Yikes!! Talk about the last century! We are the lucky ones, still at it. ❤

[@FrancesFraser-wl1je]

Thanks once more - that print was sensational.🇦🇺

[@carole2077]

I loved the old photo Fulton. I was working as an offset printer back then. I wish I had some photos. I was always playing about making mono prints on my mixing glass. I love print making and I really appreciate the time you take to share your wonderful works. ❤ Thank You.

[@janenef]

[@hildaklap8526]

Very cool…😊always stunning work.

[@gayneels5169]

Stunning Fulton! Great pic & etching from the past also. You are the only artist that I’ve seen so far, that is doing justice to the new super sized Gelli plate. Bravo!!!

[@Rosa-u4d]

Very cool!!!

[@DrJones-nh4my]

Nice photo. Thank you for sharing. Turns out we're the same age. :). but, you are the teacher :)

[@sp3328]

Looks awesome! Less is more!

[@RitaSwinford]

The large plate - only 8 sq inches more- is wonderful. ?, when you want 2 layers to come off Do you press very firmly on paper plus leave 5 min? Or the amount of paint not pressure has more to do with the success of both layers coming off (if well oiled)?? Thx RDSWINFORD

[@vadiando]

hi Fulton, again a very cool print! i think you used one of these small bottles last episode, i can see them on the left hand side, would you mind to tell the brand of them? thank you a lot for your generosity

[@artwhisperer88]

the small "bottles" are really 3d pens by Sennelier. They are called Abstract 3D Liners, available from Jerrys Artarama

[@vadiando]

@@artwhisperer88 thank you soo much

[@beckybroun6529]

I had a few questions about working with the larger prints-how do you dry them as you are working? Do you hang them on a line? Also, how do you store the prints that you make? Do they need to have tissue or something in between them if stacked? Finally, if you are selling one, do you mount it or put it in a large, clear envelope. I have only worked on the 8 x 10 plate and currently paste mine to birch cradle frames, but this won’t work with card stock and thicker paper of large gel prints. Thank you for sharing with us your art and beautiful techniques!

[@artwhisperer88]

Hi Becky, I will do my best to answer your questions. I have fans blowing all over my apartment so the air dries the prints, which lay on tables, coffee tables, side tables whatever flat surface I have. I don't have space to dry them on a clothesline. I have 2 architect's flat files to store the finished work, and it is a must to have archival tissue paper in between the prints. I sell the larger prints in tubes. If your are serious in pursuing printmaking full time I suggest you enroll in a workshop in your area if you have one to familiarize yourself with print shop practice. Good luck!

[@beckybroun6529]

Thank you so much for your prompt reply!
