Creating Matisse Inspired Gelli Prints

#GelliPrinting #MatisseInspiredArt #GelliPrintTechniques
I wanted to do this for some time: Matisse inspired gelli prints. I created the stencils and masks with my Cricut Joy but most of the masks can be hand cut easily. I had fun with his color palette as well and the new shapes were inspiring for me.
The colors I used were:
Golden Fluid: Phthalo Blue Green Shade, Teal, Pyrrole Orange
Amsterdam: Permanent Green Deep mixed with Primary Yellow

Absolutely LUV your stuff. The fact that everything doesn't always turn out perfectly is very encouraging to us newbies and I thank you for not editing little mistakes out.❤❤❤🇦🇺

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

My attitude is that we learn from out mistakes. Sometimes I'm tired and I make poor choices but you can learn from seeing what not to do so why not leave it in. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.

[@nitawray1125]

Best of luck in your new space! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks.

[@angelacommon488]

I love your Inspiration.thank you a Lotte from Germany

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

You are so welcome!

[@AffirmativeArtsOnTheRoad]

I especially want to thank you and compliment you on your PERFECT use of magnificent Jazz music that made this video MAGICAL!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks. Not everyone likes Jazz. So I use it sparingly.

[@christinecovert7995]

So glad for you.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks.

[@allthumbs3792]

Beautiful prints! I envy your Circuit cutter and custom stencil! Congrats on your new art space. I'm sure you'll be inspired by the new environment too.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

I can't wait. Counting the days. I'm hoping to get a Cricut maker after the move. So I can have bigger stencils. Thanks for watching. 😎

[@sankikreationsakasandra-ka6873]

Loved this ... thanks for sharing.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for watching!

[@AprilHarvey-ot4fx]

So happy for you ❤

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you so much!

[@cindycreateforlife]

Congratulations on your new studio space, I wish you much joy and success in it! I am new to your channel and I am enjoying it very much, you are very calm and soothing to listen to as well as learn from. Your favourite was also my favourite but all were great fun to watch and I just love your ‘centipede’ mask and squiggles stencil! Very inspiring!💕🇨🇦

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you so much! Comments like yours really inspire me to keep going. It has been a journey. I'm loving the growth of my art and the channel. Thanks again.

[@katiehanrahan5293]

Wonderful news about your new studio space!! That’s exciting, both that you’ll have dedicated studio space but also that you’ll get your living room back!😁 Can’t wait to see it!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Yes! Thank you! It's also exciting to have my living room back. I hate having all of it in my face when I'm trying to relax. I think I'll be more efficient at the studio as well.

[@cmr2426]

Happy Holidays to all…..🎄⭐️☃️

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Same to you! Enjoy!

[@lyndawoods1144]

I lost my studio too when I moved from London to the coast. I am lost without it. Hence belly press. Looked at your u tube and I a. Going to have a go. I wish you lots of luck In Your new studio, I am very jealous! Wish me luck with my printing. Ha.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

I hope you get a studio again soon. I'm in a smaller space now and getting used to it. At least it's a dedicated space. Thanks for watching. And good luck with the printing.

[@conniehubbell7383]

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.

[@valeriekeddie2980]

Happy Day! Congratulations on your new studio set up! I loved this video and learned so much from your teachings. Thank you!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for staying to the end. I'm hoping for better lighting in the new place.

[@jocelynelarose3715]

Really really nice and beautiful i love it 😍

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you! 😊

[@teresarhoad2952]

I'm absolutely loving your content. I immediadeltly subscribed. Am loving your style .From teaching technichues to even your attitude of not wasting the paint. Lol would drive me nuts watching someone squirt out way too much paint, only to brayer it off on a "roll off" sheet. Silliness. Either way i am here for your experience! Thank you!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks. I sometimes put too much paint by mistake. Usually because the bottle is clogged. I hate that. All these paints are so expensive. I try to not waste if possible.

[@user-ol2bp3ns5c]

Congratulations on new studio. I'm progressing too by way of your videos. Graduated to doing wood panel collages with rice paper, mostly botanical but Matisse and Picasso homages are in the future. Thanks for all your great videos.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

How wonderful! Do you like the wood panels. I especially like the deep cradle panels. They look so good.

[@user-ol2bp3ns5c]

i started with canvas panels but fell in love with the wood. And I think the deep cradle helps to better bring the art to your eyes. Look forward to all your future videos.

[@dwilloughby1969]

What do you use for your stencils that you make with your cricut?

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

I use a craft plastic. they hold up well with reuse. You just have to use more pressure on the cut. Grafix Ultra Clear .007 Plastic, Durable and Archival Film, Perfect for DIY Crafts, Stencils, Journals, Cards, 3D Embellishments, and More, 12" x 12", 25 Pack | amzn.to/3nM3niL

[@jasonballinger3549]

Can you tell me what “deli paper” you are using here ? It looks perfect for clean ups

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

It's this one: 120 Sheets Deli Paper Sheets Transparent Paper Translucent Clear Paper Tracing Paper for Drawing, White (9 x 13 Inch) amzn.to/498i17b

[@sarigoldberg2499]

Wonderful & exciting news! I’m a snowbird (DELRAY Beach) and have thinking it would be nice to have a separate studio space. Where will your space be located.?

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

In Wilton Manors. I considered applying to Arts Warehouse in Delray but it’s too far from me.

[@paulaogier4685]

Congratulations on getting a new studio, Susan! You are forgiven if you don't have time to make videos in the midst of moving! I enjoyed this video (and liked the Sueno Lucido music, too). I lived in Wilton Manors about a hundred years ago, and have a few times recently gotten down to Delray and been to the Arts Warehouse you mentioned. Will your Wilton Manors studio be open to the public?

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

@9F%98%8E%F0%9F%98%8Ennel/UCn5ArWRQp029shueN0mlasg Yes, open to the public but by appointment only. My schedule there will not be full time.

[@lyndawoods1144]

I don’t think you needed the green looks good to me

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks.
