How to begin with a Gelli plate. I show my first prints and ideas for gel prints.

[@JaneyH8765]

😃 I have recently purchased a gelli plate (having discovered I have the Jackson Art distribution centre just down the road from my new home!! 🎉❤) and today I have been playing! What fun! Endless possibilities! Happy days! X

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Janey, this makes me smile....happy days XX

[@lizmccowage8031]

Can’t wait to do some more gelli painting, it’s exciting.

[@gaynorpattle]

Keep going XX

You always amaze me with your talent, enthusiasm, and positivity. Brilliant cards. You've inspired me to pull out my plate and try to print cards for my upcoming art show. Thank you.

[@gaynorpattle]

Have a great show 🥰

[@dulcieogilvie5786]

I have just watched this . (Tim still catching up with your films) . Having been on a gelli morning course yesterday…..it is SOOOO true, you have to learn from doing. This form of printing is such fun. I discovered that you can transfer from a soft pastel drawing….or a charcoal drawing……it is all mind blowing!!!!!!

[@gaynorpattle]

Glad you enjoyed the course....I am addicted to the big reveal !!!!!

[@anacarr4795]

Thanks. I just got a jelly plate and this is very inspiring ❤

Hello Ana, I hope you have a lot of fun experimenting the gel plate, thank you for watching and leaving a lovely comment 🥰

[@andreatorraca8755]

Cool beans,tempting to try,thank you……🥰🤩😍😇

I only discovered your channel a few days ago and you've already given me an amazing boost of energy and new ideas for my art practice. What is really lovely about your videos is that instead of giving a tutorial that is exactly how you do things, you show us the fun and freedom of using materials in our own way to further our own style. Not sure if I'm saying it right, but after watching you, I feel excited to do things my way instead of having a mindset of imitating what you just did. Love, love, love your art and your generosity to other artists. ❤

Hello and Welcome X. Thank you so much for watching and taking time to leave such a lovely comment, I really appreciate your kindness XX

[@sunshine7789]

Never thought about using a template. Thanks!

[@gaynorpattle]

Good to hear ! Thank you for commenting

[@sherrierichard2848]

That was fun to watch, and thanks for the mantra to get over the fear!! Just get on! Thank you so much!

[@summersun5753]

I enjoyed watching your video. You have made a very good start. Well done! 🙂👍 The gel plate is such a great creative tool. Thank you. Colin.

[@gaynorpattle]

Thank you, I can't believe I've only just discovered it !!!

[@janinafisher101]

I love my gel plate too! Such fun, and so many ways to use it. Your cards turned out lovely, and great idea to use it for bookmarks too! And I love the new t-shirt you got with another one of your paintings printed on it! Lovely!

[@gaynorpattle]

Thanks so much!

[@MaryGadsby]

I’ve never seen another video where the artist used a template for their gelli plate, such a great idea!! I hope you make more gelli videos, I really enjoyed this one.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Mary, thank you for commenting. I am trying different things with the Gelli and it is a great new addition to my art practice. There will be more videos to come. 😊

🤔"fear of being laughed at." Go Girl!💪💖.# be fearless.😊👍😎

[@gaynorpattle]

I'm trying !!!

[@valeriesawczyn7370]

I love my gelli but don't use it often enough. Time to get it out again . Thanks 💘

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Valerie, glad you liked the video, this Thursday I make my first attempts with the 8 x 10 - it has been quietly waiting for months !!!!!😀

[@headlessviolin]

Great to see your take on the wonderful plate I’m absolutely addicted to it loved your prints so bright and beautiful. I hope you do some more thank you for your videos. I’m so all over the place I wish I worked in such a neat way I’m such a hot mess xx

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Headlessviolin ! This message makes me smile, for most of my life I've had good intentions of being tidy....if the room looked neat, the cupboard contents fell in !!! I cannot say things are completely ordered but the whole Marie Condo thing helped enormously. 🥰

[@katpaints]

Yay! Oh yes! A couple suggestions. Get some Plexiglas... perspex or something like that, too put your plates on so you can see what you'll be getting before you print. The other is to make some sort of a drying rack so that your cards and prints are more contained. A lot are zip-tying metal grid shelving into a single 12" cube with others of the grids zipped on at each one inch grid. I hope that makes sense.

[@gaynorpattle]

Hello Kathleen, great suggestions, I have realised that a drying rack is exactly what I need !! Thank you so much for sharing...brilliant !

[@dulcieogilvie5786]

Plexiglass plate….great idea!!!

[@jdevereux9155]

Beautiful end result It’s so easy to set the bar so high that you are left with is inertia

[@gaynorpattle]

Well said 🥰

[@GenieGeerArtyology]

Now I might try out mine. I want to draw on it.

[@gaynorpattle]

Go for it Genie X

[@laurenp1274]

Weird to see empty walls! Love the finished result on the cards 😍😍😍 The circley patterns with the long sticks are giving me shitake mushroom vibes. 🍄What's the next challenge to be? 🥦💚

[@gaynorpattle]

It was weird !! Rest assured that paintings are back. I am struggling to get back into my cabin 'flow'..... all will be revealed next week🥰
