Tiny Landscapes
Yesterday a 2″ circle punch arrived. I was totally confused. Apparently I ordered it in January, and I had completely forgotten about it. It’s now back in stock, apparently. I had been using one of my gel plates as a palette, so I pulled what was on there, and it wasn’t exactly inspiring. The surprise…

Painting Elphin
Sketchbook painting using one of my photos of Elphin the taxidermy badger that I took at the wee sketching group event a few weeks ago. I’m playing with colour, and using turquoise as the almost mother colour because, like the badger, I am a creature of habit. I was using one of my gel plates…

Gel Printing on Fabric Tips
Sheelagh asked in the comments about gel printing on fabric, and there are various ways to do it, there are probably more ways to do it than I have listed here, such is the versatility and beauty of gel printing. First, it depends on what you want to do with the fabric you are printing…

More Gel Plate Inkjet Image Transfers
I carried on with this experiment today, and pulled the inkjet image transfer of my drawing onto some gel prints. I think the process is going to do what I want it to do, but still some testing to do, so these will have to hang to dry for a few days before I can…

Inkjet Image Transfers on the Gel Plate SUCCESS
While I am leaving the inkjet prints on various papers to dry for a few days, I decided to revisit another experiment I first wanted to try a few years ago. I can tell you it was a few years ago because I looked up the date I bought the freezer paper on the big…

Daisy Pulls

Today I watched a video showing the exploded remains of a journalist gathered into a shoebox, topped off with a piece of his scalp, and placed in a carrier bag. None of the people who could stop this want to stop it. 232/300

Monotype Printing
I am never short of ideas, and that’s what’s so funny/frustrating about a lot of days when I go to the studio, and then stand there wondering “what am I going to paint???” Today I didn’t have that feeling, although I did a whole bunch of procrastinating before I went to the studio, so it…

Pulling
Today I got a wee parcel with two gel plates from a brand I haven’t tried before, so that was a nice way to get back into the studio and mess about with paints. I’ll have to give them a few sessions before I can decide whether they are like for like, or an improvement,…

I’ve Pulled
The satisfaction to be had slowly pulling a gel print that has been left overnight is so good. This was all pulled as one, so lots of waiting for layers to dry in between. It just needs a little tweak on one eye, and it’s good to go. Til the morn, Suzanne 183/200
