Posca pens on the Gel Plate-Tutorial Tidbits

Looking for PRODUCTS USED in this video? Social Media? Click "SHOW MORE" below!
This week I'm drawing directly on my 9x11 Dina Wakely gel plate with Posca Paint Pens! These paint markers are amazing, they write on any surface including glass, wood, metal, ceramic, and even the rubbery surface of your gel plate.
I'm using my Tree of Life Gustav Klimt inspired mask by Joggles as a template for my colorful Posca Pen doodling. When it's all dry, I'll show you how to coat the whole colorful mess with Golden Fluid Acrylics and pull a beautiful, colorful, whimsical print on a 9x12 sheet of rice paper.

It's a beautiful class you have done friend Elizabeth. Exciting and easy to understand.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks so very much!

[@BirdieB12]

@ElizabethSt.Hilare This is such a neat idea💡 It would be helpful for the viewer in advance to activate the posca before using on the gelplate if there are new viewers to the gel plate and or the posco pens or both,its a great idea on a quick mention on in directions. The poscas can sometimes blob out the ink or to shake it and test before using on the gel plate on a separate piece of paper. I thank you for making this tutorial and cannot wait to try with my gel pate this process.😃🎨

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks for the tip!

[@juliemayton3761]

First of all that necklace is fabulous! Thanks for postings tutorial on the goodies. That is very helpful on their use. The "close-up" shot of the color swatches at the end was really nice to!

Funny that I found this video today on You Tube - I was just thinking about you....I took a class in paper painting in Fernandina Beach FL. I was thinking you are one of the top 5 best instructors ever! Your classes are so well planned and enjoyable. Thank you...I hope to find you again for another class. For now, I'm going to learn about using Posca pens on my gel plate. ;- Alice K.

[@lindseywarren44]

WOW! So much Klimt FUN!! :) That was awesome, Elizabeth! I love this pull. I've tried using Poscas on the gel plate before and wasn't very successful - likely down to my impatience! But I'm going to give it another go. You always inspire me. Thank you so much for such a fun, colourful and joyous tutorial. SO cool! Love and Bless

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks Lindsey! Give it another go and allow the print to sit there a bit before you pull it, I think that's the key. :)
