Your creativity and your imagination are the medicine for the soul.

Keep shining sharing your light is extraordinary ✨💫❤we need your light

You are the artist! If you want collage or no collage or whatever you want on your art is your choice. I understand artistic critique, but i don't understand anyone thinking they know your art better than you. Your work is amazing aaaand it is always uniquely you. ❤ Thank you for sharing!

Lucky for us that you cannot leave well enough alone! 🎉

The results of this series were each so different from each other, and I appreciated each one. The second one was a gorgeous results.

I liked your comment about and use of positive shapes. It makes a quite distinctly different print. And of course using disposable stencils means your work will always be fresh. I am sure many will be glad that the fabriano is almost finished. the tension at the reveal was almost unbearable! 😄 glad you like uk somerset paper. I live in bristol just a few miles away. We often have clients in Wells.

The best series...I think❤

I'm re-watching your videos and falling in love all over again! Your work so inspires me, Fulton. Im so excited to see you approaching 10K subscribers!!! Thank you again for all you've shared. ❤❤

Very cool love the transparent and opaque layers 😊

This is a very good series. One and Two are especially satisfying, but they’re all brilliant.

This was a real tour de force. Amazing depth of knowledge. Thank you again.

That one with the silver and pearl white is my favourite of all I have seen of yours. It’s gorgeous.

Nice group of work. Love you sgapes and color combinations,so intriguing to see what you create.

Wonderful, thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing your process with me. I really appreciate it and you so much You are such an amazing person. So kind and thoughtful . I see what a wonderful person you are so I am honored to watch you. Have a wonderful new year and keep shining ❤

Once I heard someone recommend soaking dirty brayers in Murphy's Oil Soap overnight. I tried it, and it worked. You still have to peel off the paint, but it's much easier, as I remember. I haven't done it for years, so I hope it's the right directions. Thank you for your wonderful work. Your voice and the music is so calming.

I love how human and real you are. Wonderful ❤

Just found your channel and absolutely love that you collage on your prints. So inspiring!

Excellent demo of how to create complexity with layering, love the mid-century look!

Really enjoyed this demo. I was working on a similar problem this morning and now have the solution I was looking for. Thank you and keep up the good work.

super content.

I think Akua inks can be used for more open time with very lovely results, working into the layer for markmaking. The first gel work I ever saw was done by someone using very large plates and Akua. I agree that the Speedball is a different thing, as you say. Close to Akua but with a shorter drying time are Golden Open why do allow you to add textural detail. The cleanup is easier than Akua too. I really like your low cost solutions though, with maximum impact That is a neat technique using something beneath the cutout stencil to ease it into place. The way you carry on till you get the result you need is a teaching in itself! Some great results today.

So beautiful…I learned a lot with your video. Thanks so much from Italy!!❤

The only one you should ever listen to is your own artistic voice. Bravo! Beautiful work. Very inspiring. Love these!

Thank you so much,Fulton! I love your work. I find it full of surprises and nuance. I have only just discovered your channel and I am enjoying it so very much. I am especially appreciative of the way you present your work and your methods I like the quiet atmosphere you create, the soft music in the background, and allowing the spaces in between while you do you things off camera. It is very well done. Thank you!

Best yet.

Wow! I only just found your channel and you've ignored my excitement for my dusty gelli plate. Every print is beautiful. The collage adds a lot...especially to the last print. Thanks so much for sharing your talent. Your style is extraordinary!

I have liked these prints the best of all your vids! Thanks❤

LOve it!!!

More beautiful and inspirational work. Thank you, Fulton. Somewhere on the web I picked up a useful tip for cleaning brayers: soak them for a day or two in liquid laundry detergent. Then you can wipe off the paint and the brayer is like new. I keep a small sealable container half filled with detergent for that purpose. It can be used for long periods and also works for forgotten brushes and other tools. And don't forget that acrylic paint is basically plastic and any waste, liquid or solid, should be treated as toxic waste and not end up in wastewater either.

Very cool!!!

Another great video Fulton, thank you. Im slowly catching up on your past videos, each one is unique and has helpful hints and tips. I love the reveal as you pull the paper, and find myself tilting my head to get a better look as the image appears 😅.....Alioban ❤

Wow, great idea with the sketch book. I hope I remember it when I need it. Thanks.

You have an incredible eye for color and shape. Thank you for another spectacular series of gorgeous prints.

Fabulous one and a half hours! Wonderful results. I am learning so much from you. Thank you

Great prints, love them all and also think your use of shape and contrast makes you so original and authentic. Thanks for sharing your art.

You're a neat person, Fulton. Your videos are simultaneously inspiring and relaxing... really appreciate your approach and willingness to follow your instincts without overthinking. Thank you!

Magnifique! The shapes, colors and textures are wonderful. It's amazing how you are able to give each piece a different look. Thanks again for sharing. 😊

This is stellar! Love it. What an inspiration! Who is anyone to tell you what to do with your art? I had a thought about a way to possibly save your stencils. You can get clear contact paper very I expensively. If you can coat your stencil paper with the Contact paper and then cut your stencil it might give enough body for reuse. Especially if you coat both sides. By the way- a brilliant solution to the floppy paper syndrome!🤓

Well, that was fun! Using the positive-shapes stencils gave everything an interesting twist. I have to say I like the prints best that have complexity in the early layers. I admire your color sense, your facility with texture, and your courage in adding another layer, when you might lose everything. And your generosity in letting us all watch it happen!

precious❤ precious❤ precious❤

Thanks! Lovely. I'm experimenting with semi-abstract birds and egg shapes, this layering is inspiring.

J'aime beaucoup votre travail Bravo!

Love them all!

My favourite is still #2, even though I was cringing when you going for the silver/pearl layer because I thought it would ruin it! It turned out really nice! I love the blues, turquoise and that Arctic blue, the ‘water’ colours are my favourites. I do also like the mid century vibe of #1 ! I agree with you about the Akua Intaglio inks, they are expensive, I bought 3 Golden Open paints and for the money, they are also not much of an advantage on the Gelli plate.

That was interesting and beautiful! My fav is the first print.....excellent!

Beautiful as always!

Wonderful work ❤

To make longer lasting overlay stencil as you've used today try using Tyvek. Each layer of acrylic paint makes is a little stronger. I used a Tyvek USPS envelope I got in the mail, lasted several pulls. Love what the teal does in all these prints. Great session!

Great ,thank you !

thanks

Nice!! ❤

I think I might try a large Mylar sheet I don’t think paper would be good for me to use 😂😊

Fulton, please, please, please consider representing yourself with a nice picture of yourself. Your work is so amazing and this cartoon you have here and on your site doesn't look anything like you and doesn't represent your art or personality. I showed your site to a friend and the first thing she said to me was that the fact you don't have a photo of yourself on your site or anywhere else is a red flag. I assured her that you really are a person and that you were the one who I was learning from. I never would have considered that a red flag. But, I just wanted to pass that along. You are in your work and in our hearts. Please consider letting the world see you. I know you are a very private person. I consider it a privilege to watch these videos and learn, and see the magic that is the end result. We all support you here.

Just for the record, Posca pens are acrylic markers😊

Also, any poor quality silver seems to work brilliantly with a gelli plate.

love your videos, i would love to know hpw you register your prints?

Hello: I really like your videos. I just wanted to inquire about the Sharpie that you are using. Is it a Sharpie paint pen? If not, and if it is just a Sharpie marker that has “permanent” on it - warning - it is NOT Permanent and will fade.

Your rocks look like boulders

Have you tried Yupo paper for making stencils? It's basically plastic paper. Not sure if they make it in the large size though. You can get multiple uses out of it. I don't clean it.

what is the purpose of waiting 5 minutes before pulling the paper off?

❤ what size is the paper you’re using that fits so remarkably with the plate?
