awesome work,, making it possible to have fun. I have never tried using a gelli plate before so I am so glad to have found you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@belindamatos6904]

Really enjoyed this video. You are so creative and knowledgeable of making something out of common materials found in the household. Thanks for sharing, loved it. Can't wait to try it.

[@MaryFlower-u2v]

Your papers are absolutely YUMMY!! You have really inspired my imagination and also dazzled me with your pretty fingernails. Glad I found your channel!

[@carolmorrison7725]

Wow wow wow!!! Love your energy and your work! Great teaching! inspirational you ❤

[@TheOldladyB]

I am so inspired by this video. Wow. Thank you so much for sharing how to make these. I love them.

[@jlm517rocks]

Rich tips, elegant conversation. ii reuse paper toweling ink/paint stained for color, texture, & substrate reinforcement (w/matte medium), & sometimes it becomes it's own finished piece rather than the starting place for collage layers. Great video. Ty.

[@333Judy333]

Another great video with lots and lots of ideas! I love how you challenge us to look at what you're doing and to take it even farther -- or even try something different, but similar! HIGH FIVE!

[@kyleoliver9538]

WOW, Robyn, my head feels like it's going to explode! So many ideas, generating so many more ideas. Beautiful papers as always, *sigh*.

[@deborahangel6237]

I agree. So inspiring!

[@veronicalucas4213]

I'm so happy to have found you on KZbin. I love the way you create specialty papers. I look forward to watching more of your videos.❤

[@carolpettiford-jones1679]

Hey Robyn; this was one of your best videos in a while. You showed a lot of new ideas and great techniques I've not seen before on KZbin. I was very impressed. Love having new and different techniques to use in my art.

[@doloressowinski6163]

Your spontaneity is so refreshing. Thanks for sharing your creativity. I am joyful that I found you.

[@RobynMcClendon]

I am happy you are here! Thank you :)

Aw Thanks so much! 😊 I appreciate you

[@a.fayeday4639]

Almost all of these techniques were new to me - thanks for sharing with such clear directions - can’t wait to try them.

[@AntyPam4250]

So many neat ideas. I think the ‘string inside the paper sandwich’ might be my favorite . . . Thanks for all of the inspiration! 👏🏻❤️

[@gigis.garden]

such an inspiration, thankyou so much. I work with ceramics and i bought a geli plate as i print on ceramics and impress flowers etc, im gonna have a go at the one with holes to make an underglaze print love love love xxx💕💕

[@jeannecavanaugh7789]

Such great ideas!

[@marybarnes7628]

As always I love this class. You always bring ideas that inspire me to fully explore my creativity. I love the idea of creating sculpted paper collage. Simply beautiful! Can’t wait to jump in. Thanks Robyn!❤️

[@KriRama]

Robyn I’m so excited to find your channel! 🥳🤩 I’m new to mixed media creating & you have so many fun ideas to explore & play with! TFS ❤️

[@sandybates2366]

Love all these ideas. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@dorothyatchison1825]

I agree with Marie, an hour with you is an hour well spent … really loved this video loaded with tips … must admit after doing mixed media for many years I am an honorary member of the pack-rat club … keep up the great stuff Robyn and much 💕 from “We the north”

[@RobynMcClendon]

Thanks Dorothy :)

[@paulinesteinbrink3568]

Just loved this technique! You are so creative and have such great ideas to use in art. One thing I thought of that could be used is the netted bags onion, garlic, lemons and limes come in. They come in many colors too!

[@RobynMcClendon]

Yes! Great idea :)

[@daisyandthecowboy2544]

Fabulous!!! Definitely one of the top 10 video shares! Thank you for your inspiration, I so look forward to Saturday mornings with you.... XOXO

[@wickchick1963]

Oh my goodness I love it! I took loads of notes and I'm excited to try these ideas out!!! Thank you so much 😊xxx

[@kayperret2417]

This. Oh. This. You've hit all my bells. My most favorite week yet. Thank you SO MUCH!

[@LivingInFullEssence]

I look forward to your video each Saturday, Robyn. Thank you. Love texture.

[@thucao944]

I totally love this idea. Awesome awesome!

[@pamspeers8873]

You got me with the wire and paper trick. I'm now subscribing. I'm really enjoying your videos

[@ka8byrdie]

So so interesting ! Great techniques , love the textures and materials . Love all of your tips and how to videos . Jus so thorough! Thank you .

[@lindanonnenmann1112]

New subscriber here. I really enjoyed your ideas for textures and mark-making. My favorite was how you decorated the cheesecloth with color and bleeding dots...such fascinating results. These ideas would easily translate into mixed media materials, especially fabric. Great video, Robyn!

[@glittergrandma]

Great video. You are such a great teacher! ❤

[@melindareynolds7867]

I am working on a project and I was stuck..Your ideas have inspired me -so now I am unstuck! Thank you!

[@kathy4950]

WOW !!!! new to the channel LOVING IT! Kathy from Cali.😎

[@dianeknott3655]

Robyn, just found you yesterday. Your channel popped up randomly. I'm a fiber artist, not mixed media, but your amazing techniques are so inspiring and can be translated to fabric and threads in so many inventive ways. Great tutorial! Loved this video!

[@brucewagner4394]

I liked the sandwich idea, but I think I'll try a clementine bag to use. And or a combination of that bag and some wire going through it,or string. After seeing your show ,absolutely opens an endless list of things to do. Thank you. I love the crumble up thing,and then do a dry brush technique also. 👌

[@pedrazwemmer380]

Love Love this!! And i am a Great fan of your work!! Greetings from Holland, Pedra

[@katiejosmith246]

Excellent video! I learned so much! ♥️

[@riverrat7356]

Robin, I told my son that I really liove your channel more than anyone else’s and it feels like having a conversation with myself only that you’re sharing several new ideas that I may not have thought of and I know I have some that you haven’t mentioned yet either but nevertheless, I didn’t know quite what was my connection until now. We both are trained in anthropology & archaeology too,, and have always been an artist as well . ..and even though I wanted to study art formally and my parents said no, the next best thing I could think of was Anthropolgy. After graduate school I went to work in Archaeology for the last 38 years. I’m a member of a printmaking group and Now that I’m retired somewhat, I have a studio in town and I am pursuing an ancient love of Art. Im glad you mentioned your background. It just solidifies my realization that I have a sense of purity of focus. I’ve come to realize that my life experiences and my education & work history have all influenced my artwork subconsciously. Thanks for sharing your passion with us.

[@RobynMcClendon]

Wow! What amazing connections.....I too studied Anthropology for the same reason....lol My parents didn't think highly of a BFA!!! So cool to hear your story Thanks so much for sharing and being apart of this incredible community of Creators! xo

[@vickikaye2170]

what lovely techniques for some inspiring papers and how differently they would come out with other colour palettes xxx

[@armandefrance701]

Thank you, for your company, inspiration, I’m off to the kitchen!!

[@kathyseek6295]

So many ideas with rich looking results! Can’t wait to try with my unused calligraphy paper! Awesome video, Robyn. Thank you. ❤️

[@lmneris]

love all the info and ideas most of all attracted to the colors. thanks for sharing

[@burienzoo]

Happy October, Robyn! I love finding videos I've previously missed! ❤

[@DSmith-pc9jn]

Your background is interesting. I saw a collection of Benin sculptures years ago in San Franciso and it had a powerful influence on my life. I love the bugs they add to their vases.

[@RobynMcClendon]

Wow it sounds like it was a fascinating exhibition ❣️ thx for enjoying my work 😊

[@RobynMcClendon]

Omg I love it! :) Kindred spirits

Modpodge also has some type of varnish in it also. Shannon green puts a little polycrylic in the glue and water . I have been unsuccessful with mixing it though. I prefer matt medium also

[@blanchetait8063]

Amazing collage fodder…so excited to try implementing these techniques ❤️😍

[@susanboyter9034]

I'm going to try some vintage buttons with this idea

[@arthouse2030]

Just came across your channel. Delightful to hear you tell your story! Your jewelry looks like that which a 'styling' archeologist would wear, just beautiful yet simple! Happy to subscribe & start following 😁
