Easy Brusho backgrounds on the Gelli plate!!  

No problem...I hope you enjoy making a few 🙌

Funny...I am just getting into watercolor. So we're crossing paths. I have lots of gel plate videos that are experimental including using alcohol inks on the gel plate. Lots more gel plate and watercolour tutorials to come. I am also setting up a Patreon soon for extra gel plate and watercolour content if you're interested. 😊

Thanks Mags. Hope you've had a bit of time to have a go. X

You're in for a treat. Great for a bit of texture on watercolour too. Xx

I love this technique. I hope you enjoy having a go x

@@gailjuliemakes yes, I tried it. But my results are not so good as yours. 😉😊

Hey hon. Hope you get a chance to have a go. They look so beautiful with inks but work well on there own too. They are just great to experiment with. Gail Xx

I'm so glad you've enjoyed the video and decided to stick with them. The Elements pads are amazing and I have more videos on techniques like image transfer with them. I was really happy with the distress inks too including the oxide, so definitely keep experimenting with them too. You can always add more brusho after if you feel they haven't come out as detailed and remember if you use oxide you can continito manipulate with water after you use your brusho's. I have lots more Gel plate videos to come, so I'd love it if you subscribed to my channel. Take care and keep crafting. Gail xx

@@gailjuliemakes Thanks Gail, I will keep experimenting. I've already subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to seeing all your projects.

There are so many different ways to use the gel plate... it's basically a plate made out of a jelly like substance (gel comes from gelatine although the manufactured plates are not gelatine) that you can use with many different media to create unique prints (monoprints). I hope you enjoyed the video and it helped you with the Brusho's too. 🙌

@@gailjuliemakes Hi ! Thankyou, learning something new:) all the time! Had never even heard of it before. Totally fascinating.

Sounds interesting. You'll have to share some pictures. I've never tried Lindys but hear they are good. 👍

Hi Sheryl, thanks for watching. That would definitely work but the colours would be a lot darker and more concentrated in certain areas which wasn't really what I was going for because I wanted to use these as backgrounds. I always encourage people to experiment though because that may be just what you're looking for in a piece you have in mind. X

@@gailjuliemakes thanks!

Sorry, this is an older video of mine and my mic was not the best quality. You should be able to put subtitles on if you are struggling. Gail
