A bit of printing last night. There's something about stripes ๐ .
Incidentally, the usual fab offerings served up on #LyricFM's The Blue of the Night included beautiful music from the album Terres Turquoises (Turquoise Lands) by Constaninople/Franรงoise Atlan.

For Texture Tuesday:
Excerpt of a 12x12" gelprint from last night. Somehow the clean-up prints always turn out to be the most interesting. ๐ Worked with just 3 colours: Burnt Sienna, Phtalo Blue GS, Titan Buff Deep, plus white.

Got a giant box y'day to get my paints organised. ๐ Since I work in my kitchen I have to be able to easily move them about. About half came second hand, especially those crazy expensive GOLDEN brand ones; a nice selection of Winsor&Newton too.
Great incentive to do a bit of printing last night. I was going for that grungy look of old painted walls.

@colorblindcowboy #gelprinting is a #monoprint technique that uses layers of #acrylic paint on a gel plate. Often stencils and other methods are used to remove or add texture. Magazine prints can also be lifted on a clean plate, like the silhouettes in my print.

Doing a bunch of #printmaking lately, preparing for some workshops I plan to lead in the next few months. Tried #gelplateprinting for the first time, and though I haven't printed anything I'm really happy with yet, I'm enjoying learning the technique! #gelprinting #art

Still messing around with the Gelli Plate. This time I printed a block from the old Christmas card I mentioned the other day. Iโm gonna see how the oil based ink works on top of these and print another block on top with my new Caligo Safe Wash inks. For now I kind of like them without the Nativity printed on top. Maybe they can be humanist holiday cards #gelprinting #gelliplate #gelliprint #blockprinting #blockprint #printmaking #art #reliefprint #craftsposure

Did some more gel printing in my sketchbook and tried to incorporate a couple of blocks I used for a Christmas card I made over a decade ago. Still not getting the results I want, but there are some interesting textures. #gelprinting #gelliplate #gelliprint #gelliprinting #printmaking #monoprint #monoprinting #printmaker #art
