Any acrylic paint will work on the gel plate but the medium body student grade ones work best.

Great demo. I tried this outdoors. The Gelli plate was new and was very sticky when the plastic covering was removed. I used liquid acrylic paint and computer paper and it got all stuck to the gelli plate. Any ideas why this might have happened? Do you think it was because it dried too quixjly outdoors? Thanks
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
Hi Cynthia, was it very warm outside? The combination of heat and wind would tend to dry the paint very quickly. Try rubbing some baby oil into your plate if its sticky, sometimes it takes a little while to get the hang of how much paint to apply and how quickly you need to work. Indoors will prob give you better results.
@CynthiaTrombley-jz9dh
@CynthiaTrombley-jz9dh Год назад
@@susanmccreevyartist Thanks for the quick reply. Is the plate not supposed to be very tacky like Scotch Tape? Can I copy one of my photographs on a laser printer and use that picture to make a print? I loved what you did with the photographs! I thought that shiny paper was to be avoided, but I imagine that thw magazine pictures were rather glossy. We'll try it indoors next time Cybthia

@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
Hi, I also have a video on image transfer where I experimented with laser copies, with mixed results to be fair. The glossy magazines work well, I really like using text in my work so I use them mainly for that effect. It should not be sticky like tape, what brand of plate do you buy?

I made a Gelli plate last night and put in frig to harden. I tried to do image transfers on it this morning and I got NOTHING! When I put the magazine on top of paint it just pulled all of the paint off the plate. You said something about the temperature in house…if that wasn’t right it might not work. The Gelli plate was still very cold from frid…could that have been the reason when I put the magazine page on the paint to transfer it just pulled all of the paint off the plate? Also, I used Arteza acrylic paint. Could that also have been the problem. The Gelli plate ripped when I was cleaning it so I had to microwave and start over again! Love your tutorials and thank you so much for sharing your creativeness with us!

Be scientific and take notes so you remember what works and doesn’t , good luck! 😀🙏

I fast fwd to 17 minutes in for what I plan to do. You seem not to use the first paper printed but no mention if you throw away the first paper printed or why. It seems the second print is the best? How many usable prints can we make from 1 paint application? Thank you.
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist 4 месяца назад
I don’t throw away any prints. It depends how much paint is on the plate, average 2 maybe 3 pulls per application ☺️

Having been inspired by your videos, I've been looking at gel plate printing supplies. Do you use a hard or soft brayer? Does it make much difference? Thank you.

My paint never coats evenly, even with the brayer. After i lay it, it leaves gaps everywhere. Am I using the wrong paint?
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
I’ve had problems in the past if the paint is a bit old? They can dry up in the tubes and become a bit grungy. Also if the roller is not flowing freely this can be a problem as the paint is getting smushed across the plate. My suggestions, basics acrylic paint, decent roller and ditch any paint that’s been kicking about too long 😀

With the image transfer would it work with regular printer paper or gloss photo paper instead of glossy magazine paper?
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
Hi Briony, I’ve had success with magazines that are not glossy, also photocopies that are laser printed do work. I don’t think regular photos work though 🤔

Great techniques and ideas. Thanks for the video. Are you using a specific type of paper towel to clean the plate?
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
Hi there 👋 I usually use a baby wipe, any brand and then just standard kitchen paper towel to dry the surface before applying more paint, a clean rag that doesn’t leave behind fibres would work fine too.

Thanks for the lesson, Susan! So do you only use these papers for collage? Or can you create finished artwork from a print?
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
Hi Heidi, the last series of paintings I made that you probably saw on IG ( there’s a short on here too) Many of them started off as a print adhered to wooden cradleboard then I paint on top, collage more or add pen details.

Are we able to use both sides of our gelli plates to print from. I’m making a homemade plate
@susanmccreevyartist
@susanmccreevyartist Год назад
I use both sides if my reusable gel plate, if both sides of your plate have a smooth surface it should work. Try and see, always the best way. Some folks don’t clean their plate as they prefer the more grungy textured look they get.

Yes you can, it depends on how I’m going to be using the paper. In my big gelli plate demo I’m using 220gsm cartridge as there are a number of layers
