I love your painting with your beautiful little dog.

I love how much this looks like batik.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

It does! Thanks Rachel

[@dianeschneider7442]

I appreciate your lessons. I really like your self portrait with your pup that I see in the background. It’s wonderful.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks! That’s by my friend Terri Welch

[@janinafisher101]

Wow - I love how much this looks like batik. And here I thought I could stop buying art supplies and then I see that gorgeous Golden Fluid Acrylic Turquoise (Phthalo) and the Iridescent Copper Light (Fine)... and the Bronze... oh my!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

It really does look like Batik! Oh my the colors are glorious, yes

what great results!! thanks for sharing 💜 can't wait to try it out and hope I can find something similar to "Deli paper" here in Germany

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

It’s what we wrap sandwiches in, see if your local eateries have some! Ask where they get it.

[@jlm517rocks]

stunning!! new outro... 'keep it crumply' ... well done.

Inspiration is an amazing gift! Thank you so much and thanks for taking the time to say so

[@jojojo8835]

I’m so sad I can’t get deli paper in the UK- beautiful work!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

are you sure? it's the paper they wrap sandwiches in here in the US, we used to only be able to get it at restaurant supply. Sometimes if you find a sandwich shop that has it you might be able to ask for a few sheets. Or do you have restaurant supply? something that you can get in the UK that is VERY expensive here is Wet Strength Tissue Paper, you might use that instead! We are VERY jealous that you have that there in the UK!!!!

[@gmoncrieff4884]

If you open the paper wrinkles after all these steps there might be even more depth visible...but do it before the paint dries. Great colours

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

yes, they will be opened when I glue them down for collage. Thanks!

[@rosejames1436]

Wow! This is such a cool technique! Thanks for sharing!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

My pleasure, I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

Oh, those Golden paint colours are so beautiful! Too bad that brand is so expensive but I think it’s much better value than the less cost brands. Wow! those are such beautiful eye candy!🦌💌👍📚

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

I wouldn’t use anything else. Such vibrant color and a little goes a long way ! And professional quality, no fading.

[@theartisticnomad15]

Beautiful technique! The last two with the interference would be beautiful to add another layer mix using the interference green. It would be totally peacock!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

I was thinking the same thing! I will have to put that on my list of things to do, another peacock!

[@theartisticnomad15]

@@ElizabethStHilaire as I’m preparing my list of what to bring to Mexico. ALL the stencils I have that you designed and the must have golden colors that can’t be substituted are going. Big hugs to you for being a catalyst!

@@ElizabethStHilaire An online workshop or Patreon’s in depth tutorial would be perfect. I bet I don’t live near you (bummer!!) as I am in Tucson, AZ. Where are you? And what would be the cost for the workshop vs the Patreon tutorial please? 💗

[@janetvisochi-baum7572]

this was wonderful - when i do the crinkle look on my gel plate i always used plastic wrap - and when i lifted the plastic wrap up - i placed it down onto paper - now using the deli paper will be so much easier - thank you and i love your new stencils xx

[@margaretpinsent6388]

New subbie here, I've just discovered your channel - I've been trawling for gelli plate tutorials and most seem to be years old, so it's great to find you're doing them now. I realise the basics haven't changed, but there's always a new technique, new effects, etc, right? Unfortunately I can't get your stencils as I'm in the UK, and I fear import duty would be huge too. I love the crinkled look, and I watched you using the Japanese paper too. Thank you for sharing your creativity and inspiration. Mx🌺

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Hello Margaret, thank you for being here. I make a video every Friday which you can also get as a nice blog post if you sign up for my mailing list: eepurl.com/KkA-L There's always something new to learn, YES! Joggles will not ship to the UK due to the VAT, correct. The crinkled look is fun right? The rice paper is my favorite and you can get it on Amazon!

How fun to watch! I can't wait to try it. I have access to some deli paper already. Would I use the slicker side or the more paper side? Or does it matter? Thanks!

Hi elizabeth can you use wax paper instead of deli paper? Quite similar

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

It won’t glue flat, no. It’s much much more slick than dry waxed deli.

[@dorotheebenichou7686]

Hello thanks for this new tip...unfortunately joggles won t mail to France anymore ...any other supplier? Thanks sooo much .Do in 🗼🤗👋

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Sorry it’s because of the taxes that they can’t ship to the EU. I’m not sure of anyone else who does. Thanks for watching Dorothee

Are you using fluid or hard body acrylics

Always fluid, heavy body takes too long to dry
