Gelli-Pad Printmaking Workshop

Gelli-Pad Printmaking Workshop

Break out of the traditional printmaking techniques and explore the world of gelli-pad printmaking!

Sunday May 21 from 1pm-3pm

Ages 15 +

Taught by Lou Ann Branz

Enter through Main Entrance

Gelli-Pad/Plate Printmaking uses a gelatin plate to press paint onto fabric or paper creating textures and layers of colour.

In this workshop, we will be creating a large abstract art piece using a gel plate and acrylic inks & paints.

We will explore the use of natural grasses along with geometric shapes throughout the process to create a contrasting composition.

Mono-prints will be layered on top of one another to create each individual piece of art!

Basic tools and techniques will be demonstrated and discussed - all skill levels welcome.

Please wear your paint shirt :-)

Lou Ann is "very excited to share her love of the printmaking process"! 

With her background in social work & substitute teaching, combined with her hands-on knowledge of landscape & abstract painting, printmaking and even papermaking at City Museum in STL, she is sure to guide you through an enjoyable printmaking experience.
