Mixed Media Flower Collage with Gelli Prints & Acrylics

[@shannonfrancis2918]

Hi Vikki, love seeing how you use your gelli prints and your painting technique. I would have no problem watching an hour of you working on how you develop your painting. And I enjoy watching you make your gelli prints. Appreciate you taking the time to share.

Thank you Shannon, I appreciate your comment very much! It is so fun to watch the gelli prints come to life, such immediate gratification, but the mixed media pieces take awhile and sometimes...need to be sanded down and begun again! I'm grateful for the feedback, I will continue to add mixed media videos to the channel, along with new gelli print videos of course!

Terrific work! Amazing how much creativity is in that 20 minute video :-) I also wouldnt mind a longer version!

[@VikkiReed]

Aw, thank you, S.K.! I DO have a full (almost) video, of a floral, unedited, 53 minutes! Here's the link, if you're curious kzbin.info/www/bejne/nni9pp2gjKmnfNU

So glad you did this demo just got interested in gelling prints but had no idea how to use the papers you print

[@VikkiReed]

Yes! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, I've made several on this subject as so many of us need to know what to do with all those prints!

HI Vikki. What paper did you use? Copier paper? Or did you copy the collage image onto a different paper? Love this technique. Thank you for sharing!

[@VikkiReed]

Lori, thank you for your question! I used 90 lb. stock to copy the original, because I get so many questions about how to use the gelli prints, I wanted to show that you can make a collaged base into virtually anything! So far we have done a "Peace Project", a bird and now the floral...if I was working without that goal in mind, I would have simply used the base I created for the mixed media piece
