Gelli printing with layers and a single pull

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Sorry if you don't like the music. I can't fix it. This is one of 2 videos where the music was too loud. It is my most popular video. I took some of the comments to heart and stopped adding music. My views have dropped off and my revenue. So I will continue to use music in my videos. This is the last time I will talk about music. All I can say is if it bothers you that much on the videos that are proper volume, then don't watch. I don't understand people who feel the need to point out the negative. I try to live and let live and stay positive. I don't need the negative comments in my feed. I am aware of this on this video. No need to tell me. For those of you who have kindly tried to defend me, thank you very much.

Susan - I think you meant “DIDN’T understand” in the description?

[@trishi52]

thank you for this tutorial! your explanation gave me so much clarity on gelli printing!

[@maureenlittle-i1w]

Im still making mistakes because Ive got a mixture of acrylics and they have different drying times and opacity! I have some golden open acrylics which take longer to dry than others but they are lovely. Its when I tried fluid acrylics that its even more confusing. However I do love gelli printing and have got my mojo back after my painting stopped during covid. I never thought Id be so motivated and excited as my 80 th birthday approaches. Thank you Susan for your great videos.

[@cristinakaminski8998]

Thank you for stating the drying time. Most other channels don’t. This is important to doing it right.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

You are so welcome!

[@sonja_rademacher]

I don't understand why so many people are complaining about the music. Her voice is much louder than the music, because she lowered the volume everytime she spoke. Her voice is clear and I understand every single word. The music between the explanations is beautiful and fits the art. ❤

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for that. It's been frustrating. I guess they don't like the choice of music.

[@merrymacmurphy]

@@SusanCliftonArtist For Goodness sake, they can just turn it down if they dont like it. it's no big deal! gosh when I dont like music I just turn it down. people can control it so don't worry about your music. your videos are awesome! so are you!

[@sarahjameson2110]

I don't have very good hearing nowadays so I do find music means I find it much more difficult to concentrate on the voice and it's important to hear what the artist says in this sort of tutorial. I guess if you have good hearing it's not so bad. Anyway, I'll keep persisting and maybe try just with subtitles.

[@robertaesp]

I have been watching many videos and gel printing. I have to admit gel printing is driving me crazy but very addictive. This video I have to say in my opinion is one of the best thank you so much.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@kimmiedorthea]

I actually loved the music, so relaxing and I had no problem hearing every word☺️ Thank you for this video🙏

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you for that. It's tough hearing the same complaint over and over when I can't do anything about it. 😀

[@catbraunwell6450]

I am brand new to jelly plate printing, and I’ve been having fun so far. I’ve watched tons of videos and I find that yours is one of the most informative and easy to follow. Many many videos on this do not explain the drying time which is so important. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. 😊

[@Artsixtyfour]

Thank you so much for your tutorial it helped me understand geli printing a bit more before I embark on this journey, carry on doing what you do in anyway you choose too, there will always be someone that we cannot make happy in anything we do and that is ok, we are all on our own journey that doesn’t always come across as kind or grateful, but for all the thousands of us that are grateful for precious time you give to these videos ❤ 🙏🏻

[@Karibee61]

Thank you Susan, love this video and the background music; perfect and relaxing.❤

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you very much

[@terrioleson6296]

Best video ever explaining gelli printing and layers! I have watched SO MANY videos but in my opinion none have been explained as well with very precise instructions. Thank you for your expertise and time.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks, This one is a hard one for me to top. LOL

[@paulineglenn1407]

Thank you for explaining. Makes a lot more sense now.

[@rumisprite]

This simple and clear explanation is what I have needed.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thank you very much.

[@caroladerooij6382]

I loved the music!! ❤️❤️❤️ So do what you want to do, you will never make everybody happy. Stay true to yourself, thats important!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for that. But on one of them I did think the music became too loud. 😊

[@caroladerooij6382]

You are very kind! 😍

[@s.k.1091]

Terrific info!!! Thank you for the detailed explanation :-) Sadly, I side with those who think less music and less volume is Always better. I’m much more interested in your teaching than the back & forth of on/off music Keep up the good work!

[@TinaPareArts]

The music, your introduction, and the massage-like activity of placing the paper all add up to make this the sexiest gel plate tutorial ever!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

😎

[@kimbirrell4667]

Thank you. I love the examples. And the music too Thanks for sharing your process

[@triciakaplan5201]

This was a great informative video teaching about the layering. I never knew that there were translucent versus opaque acrylics. I thought they were all opaque. I will have to pay attention when I’m buying paints from now on.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Look on the bottle, there should be some indication. Good Luck! and thanks for watching.

[@caseylin1296]

Very informative video! Thank you so much- and the music was fine- geeez!!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

😄 Thanks for watching.

[@susanhamiltonart]

I wish I had found your wonderful video sooner before I made all these messes, but of course now I can use them as backgrounds! You did an excellent job explaining and reminding about drying between layers. So, if I understand correctly, let it dry 4-5 minutes if you are going to put another layer of paint on top. Otherwise, pull wet, correct? I've had so many problems recently with paper sticking and tearing. Finally discovered that I needed to put mineral oil on my plate to refresh it, so now I'm ready to try your techniques! Thank you so much, Susan! And please don't let those "Karens" get to you! You are such a blessing to us!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

The final pull is wet but let the paint dry on the paper before you pull. The dry time depends on the paint. So experiment.

[@bluediamond4502]

Glad you keep repeating let it dry. It is easy to forget that part 💎

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for watching.

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

I love your instructional videos. I get so many awesome ideas.

[@Mrsfarangnl]

I'm so glad I came across this vdo! You explain the process better than anyone I've watched before. I reasoned you have to 'think backwards' in the layers, but thinking that way only confused me. You word it really well: the first layer is what shows up best, and the last layer is the 'pull-up' layer. Yay! Also, I really like your use of ghost-prints. I only knew them as a second print. Now, I learned to actually CREATE ghost-prints, so they'll be functioning as the first layer! Thank you so much!

[@kulacooperative5189]

Wow! This is so helpful. I'm just gathering supplies to start gel prints and you gave me soooo much to work with. I appreciate when you honestly say if you like something or you're disappointed with it AND you explain the reasons you were disappointed. The difference between your anticipation and the outcome. Excellent 🎶🎶🎶!!!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

That's the thing with Gel Printing. You can try to plan but they don't always work out. And other times you think you're going to hate it and it comes out great. We just have to learn to play with it and accept the outcomes.

[@quinnandfinnadventures9143]

Great video , I learned a lot. I also LOVE the music. I always listen to jazz when I'm in my studio

[@repelsteeltje38]

Thanks a lot for your tutorial. I stayed away from gelliprinting because the most tutorials were not that convincing. Now I think time to give it a try.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

WhenI tried the first time I didn't get it. Then I picked up again and after many tried I finally started to understand it. I noticed that other artists doing Gelli prints didn't explain it so I made this video. Give it a try again. I hope you will get hooked on it.

[@63artemisia63]

@ repelsteeltje I have no idea what you mean by “convincing” but there are literally dozens of enjoyable, helpful and inspiring FREE gel print videos on KZbin. Julie Fei-Fan Balzer/Balzer Designs, Drew Steinbrecher, Birgit Koopsen/Gelli Arts and Elizabeth St. Hillaire are a few.

[@josvanmeel742]

Nice. To understand the opaque and transparant is still new for me.

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

The best way to understand is to play with the colors and make note of what is transparent and what is opaque.

[@ArtsyLadyCrafter]

Thank you so much for what you shared. "The first layer is what's going to show on top. It builds from there. Your last layer you might see very little of it, depending on the transparency of your paint." This helped me to understand perfectly! Never heard anyone describe the process like that and I couldn't get the order in my head. Because of that, I always expected something very different. Also this, "Don't forget. Dry a lot in between each layer, like at least 5 minutes." This helped a lot because it seems scary to allow any of the paint to dry so much.

[@Deb-cd5fn]

I totally agree. It turned on a light bulb for me too. Excellent way to explain it. Thanks!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

I had trouble in the beginning as well. I just different understand it. Then it hit me. So I knew others would be having the same problems. Thanks for watching.

[@debmatthews4420]

Thank you so much for the excellent instructional video. I've watch a lot of gel plate videos and this is by far one of the best! I love how you explain how the colors and opacity of the paint work for the print. Your style is much closer to what I would like to achieve. The music is not needed, but won't stop me from watching. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for watching.

[@merrymacmurphy]

[@suzieq23ify]

Omg so much complaining about the music. I hardly heard it because I was so interested in what Susan was doing and saying. The people that recommended CC we’re right on. There is usually a fix to every problem or complaint. Susan this was a very informative and creative video. Thank you.🦋🦋🦋

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Thanks for coming to my defense. I had an issue back then with my old computer. And once you post the video you can't fix it. So I have 2 videos with complaints. I continue to use music in my new videos with no complaints.

[@kyoglesage]

If you're not one of those very sensitive people for whom music is a problem/distraction (particularly for those with hearing aids or a problem with sensory overload , e.g. autism), try to be the grown up in the room and refrain from criticising the sensitive people. Perhaps use a little sensitivity in comments. Thanks.

[@sheilacym]

Thank you, Susan, for this really excellent video tutorial. I can honestly say it is now one of my favourites and definitely one of the best I have watched . I loved it because of your gentle pace and wonderfully clear, simple and concise explanations . I have watched many, many gel plate tutorials and of course there are some fab videos available ... but I particularly enjoyed yours purely because of its simplicity. I am going to rewatch it and take notes. I also agree with some of the other comments about the music being unnecessary and distracting. You don't need any music in the background in my opinion as we are very happy just to listen to you 🤗🤗 Wishing you every success and thanks again !! 🥳🥳🤗🤗

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

Usually my music is very low and not distracting. On two recent videos I had new equipment and when I did the playback I didn't hear it until it was live and watched on my Television. It is unfortunate but things sometimes happen and we need to improve going forward. I should make this a pinned comment. Thanks for the comment. I hope you still enjoyed the video.

[@sheilacym]

Understood, Susan…..these ‘techy’ things happen and it’s all a new learning curve for everyone who makes these videos, I’m sure. It definitely did not spoil it for me as I absolutely loved the video and have shared it with a friend in Canada who is also just starting with the gel plate. Your clear and concise delivery was just perfect and I am going to rewatch it and take notes. The reason I enjoyed it so much is because of its simplicity and your clear manner of describing and explaining everything. Opacity / translucency of the different coloured paints is something that I hadn’t considered previously when using the gel plate. I knew about the first layer being the dominant colour … but didn’t think about the other points that you made….so very helpful !! Learning about techniques and layering can be complex, but the way you explain it has been very helpful to me as a ‘newbie’ and I have learned a lot. I will enjoy watching your other tutorials and thank you, once again 🤗🤗

[@SusanCliftonArtist]

@@sheilacym The neverending learning curve. LOL That's life. But it's so much fun. I'm so lucky to be able to do this. Thanks for your feedback.

Keep in mind you could also do the reverse and add one layer at a time without waiting for it to dry. I prefer this method though.

[@redrdghood40]

Excellent! Taught me a lot compared to other videos! You explained so much. I do get confused about wet or dry. Others say don't let it dry but I'm thinking because the last layer is wet, it all pulls up. Thank you!

Thanks. It takes a little patience but I like the single pull prints best.

@@SusanCliftonArtist I think you're right. I like the multiple layers in a single pull - you get (potentially!) a fabulous print faster, with lots of depth.

The time stamps 9:10 and 21:10 were my favorites! The color mix of that beautiful green in 9:10 were beautiful!! and 21:10 was my favorite!!! As a watercolor mixed media artist who creates and sells alot of greeting cards but have yet to accomplish a large ,say a 14” x 20” painting. I love to include decoupage to my paintings or pencil sanding over stencils. I have just begun learning how to gel print. I have learned that you need to wait for most layers to dry before continuing. I’m curious if what you are doing on your videos are just for teaching or if you use those prints for specific crafts as well. I want to learn how to create a piece of art on canvas with gelli prints!! I’ve purchased an assortment of Amsterdam acrylic paints but see that you use golden. I have several golden and QOR products . Looks like I need to purchase some golden acrylics now, 🤪 . I have been an artist/crafter for 50 years now! Yes my mom started teaching me crafts at the age of 7. My dad actually build her ,her own craft supply room in our back yard! It was actually on our back porch so it was always covered. It was a 10’ x 10’ room! Just for supplies!!! Today she’s 84 and is making me a quilt for my electric twin bed! She’s amazing! I have Multiple Sclerosis and it has affected my left hand so I am now focusing on drawing and painting and selling all of my other craft supplies except of course anything that can produce a texture! lol .

No. The heat from the dryer is not good for the plate. I hear that some people use a fan. Most of the time I'm using fluid acrylics so the drying time isn't too bad.

I have been trying to figure that out, as the commercially available stencils offer infinite possibilities...at a price.

You can hand cut stencils on Mylar or Tyvek paper. I like to use my Cricut to make stencils.

Thanks for another great video. The patience about letting it dry was helpful. I love the music, by the way.

Thanks. There has been no much negativity on this video because of the music. Can't please everyone. So I really appreciate to hear something nice.

It's extra helpful, especially since I’m prepping to use gel printing in my artwork.

Glad it was helpful! I'm also starting to use it in bigger artwork. Enjoy!
