Gel plate printing from surprising things! 

This is definitely my cup of tea! Tired of seeing the same stencils, and leaves. Bravo!

OMG lucky you only post randomly otherwise I would spend days on RU-vid 🤣 this was phenomenal as always executed with precision and amazing results you are so frickingly talented and make it look so easy 😱

Please do more of these random objects and industrial style prints. Deffo my cup of tea!!😊

I was so inspired by this video that I found an old pair of pants, cut them up, and stuck a paintbrush in the pocket to make a very fun print. Also added some cardboard lines and mark making. Now I'm roaming around the house looking for potential print subjects! What fun!

I absolutely love this! Hands down the BEST gel plate tutorial ever. You are very talented and SUPER creative. I have always wanted to combine my photography with collaging/printing. This got my wheels turning all directions! THANK YOU!

SPECTACULAR use of found objects on the gel plate. I always love the ways you push technical approaches beyond the first idea, and far beyond the obvious. These are wonderful images and fascinating insights into the potentials of common items. The Interwebs will forever be grateful to you for moving the discourse on found-object printing beyond the ubiquitous repeat patterns of corrugated board and bubble wrap. Beautiful, evocative, and clever results!

Your work is Incredible!! You are 1st class all the way! You are by far one of the best artist using the Gelli plate. I look for a video from you everyday. I hope someday I can watch you do your thing live. You are a great inspiration to many of us artist, keep up the great work.

The way my jaw just dropped!!! There isn't enough time to do all the things I want to do!!! I'm so glad I found your channel. Thank you!

That rub-in lettering on the cassette tape gave me my nostalgia. I clean forgot about that! I used to love using those as a child. My grandmother was a secretary and den mother and had all the supplies💓💓💓

I looooooove industrial looking art. When I was able to walk and bend down without falling, I would pick up old nuts, bolts, small springs, small metal clasps, etc. and draw those and use them in mixed media pieces. I gotta get back into this, but with a Gelli plate too.

That first can print is very pop art feeling! Love it!

So glad to see you back sharing with us. Your work continues to amaze. Thank you Mark.

Old school graphic designer here. I'm super inspired by your work.

I have become such a HUGE FAN of your tutorials, your Talent and your generosity of Spirit. I figured out how to donate and just did. I passionately urge EVERYONE to do so as well. You are a Gift! ❤

Love your inventiveness and creativity. The beer can made me think I could use that for roses!

The can and little flat box prints were so reminiscent of "Pop Art"/Warhol etc! Thank you for the inspiration.

this is a fabulously creative genius in action

OMG, the comments below say it ALL. You are amazing. Wish I found you sooner. Thats OK... I'll be binge watching all your videos.

I was happy to make a small donation when I saw that you had posted again. I have learned more about gelli printing from you than anyone else on RU-vid. Keep putting your prints up on your site too! Your creativity continues to inspire me and I look forward to more videos. Thank you.

Usually I struggle to stay interested in most videos. Thoroughly enjoyed the full duration without wanting to skip ahead or stop. Never heard of gel plate before and this was fascinating.

Most interesting process of gelli printing I’ve seen so far! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Wow! every minute of this video is captivating.. it's truly amzing how you continue to keep coming up with endless ideas and inspiration every time! Thank you for sharing with us!

You continue to blow me away with your creative vision ! Man this is really good stuff ! Thanks for being so generous with all your techniques too !

You NEVER cease to amaze me with your new ideas! You have brought gelli plate prints to a " fine art" level. Thank you.

Really amazing work, quite a trigger of fond memories from childhood as it reminds me of silly putty!

The dead crow lino is incredible 🖤

I purchased a gel plate and did a few (6) tests experimenting with color and misc textures. It just didn’t spark my enthusiasm. Actually was thinking of gifting my gel plate to a fabric artist friend UNTIL I saw you video. Thanks heaps for the ideas and demo. More my cup of tea!

Wow! In just one vid, your influence has changed my game! *subscribed*

Well, it's MY cup a' tea!

Your elevation of everyday, mundane objects to mesmerizing shapes and textures is o inspiring! Also your love of incorporating drawing reminds me of prints by Jim Dine, who I also greatly admire. Your willingness to stretch boundaries and just go for it is contagious- many thanks!

Unbelievable! My mind is officially blown. Can’t thank you enough for sharing.

So stoked to stumble upon your video...unexpected objects..Yes, thanks! Keep 'em coming..

I love to watch your videos and all the techniques you use. The chain remains me a brain. Great.

I’m an equestrian and wildlife artist. I really like what you’re doing here.

Your prints are absolutely my kind of cup of tea! Me thinks, most of us are enjoying the tea you're serving up. Thanks for sharing.

This is by far one of the best gel plate videos I’ve come across!!! ♥️

Keep em coming!

Thank you so much! Your creativity is so inspiring!

I never thought about using crushed cans or clothing sleeves on Gelli plates. Ingenius. I have watched this video several times. I love your graphic work. My favorite is the Augustus Pablo piece. Please keep up the fantastic work! Much respect - greetings from Florida!

Loved this! The cassette tape - been there! 😂

Amazing! I would never have thought to use these materials on a gel plate. Thanks for the inspiration!

Wonderful and wonder if the metal made any deep dents in the plate? So inspiring and always glad to see a new video posted. I haven't tried the gloss medium to pull a print and need to try that out this week. Never thought about the fabric stuff, other than I've seen lace and doiley transfers. I love the shirt and cuff transfers. You are amazing.

That crow ❤ ! Wow !

Love your work, love the way you think and certainly love the way you inspire. Thank you so much xx

Thanks so much for these videos, I've been watching them all week. Very inspiring for someone just getting started in this medium.

Love your experiments with the gel plate - I get so excited when I see you’ve posted a new one! Thank you for sharing your ideas and process so generously. They are so appreciated- so unique and refreshing.

Love this. When I first saw gel printing on RU-vid, it was always scrapbooking ladies using things they found in their craft rooms. This is totally more my jam.

Wowza, this is fabulous! Love your homage to the mural. Told my husband that I think you're the "mad alchemist" when it comes to the gel plate. Keep up the great creativity.

Mark, you're the best! Always love to see your process. So generous and modest. Glad to hear about a dedicated space.

The can is a great idea! I will use the same “encouragement” to get my son to help me with housework🤭

So amazing and fun to see such authentic creativity and imagination in action! ❤❤❤

I love your print idea !!! Thank you for sharing ❤

This is absolutely inspiring!

This is definitely my cup of tea. Thanks for sharing!

THIS IS my cup of tea! Wow! Wow! I am definitely going to try making prints with unusual objects.

My favorite video you’ve ever done.

You are one of my favorite Gelli Plate artists.

Great video!!! Really loved your "out of the box" thinking & application. The homage to the mural came out wonderful! Such talent you have. I love your urban themes. I still, often times, think about the rubbings you did months ago, going out into the town. I loved that idea!!! You take simple things and make them into beautiful art! I love your style! I never know WHAT you are going to come up with. TFS Austin TX USA

The shirt. The raven. The heart. ♥️

Amazing to watch your work - very inspirational!!

Wow Mark! I am in awe of your creativity again. You have taken a single technique and expanded it in a way that makes it way more than a single concept. Thanks for inspiring us again! (and again and again and again...)

WOW I just found you. I’m mesmerized! I’m not an artist but will adore watching you. Brilliant. Judy

You make me want to see the entire world through fresh eyes

Wow, that crushed can made an amazing print.

You work is very creative and beautiful!

So wonderful! Love your thoughtful art.

LOVE this! Thanks for the inspiration - and an excellent video!

Wow the chain looked like a brain. Awesome images.

Thanks for the missing link Mark. Had a good laugh. Love this process. Found objects are so fascinating and the cloth especially. Take care.

Overwhelmed with your ideas! Need a book. Oh, and also a gelli plate would help! 😊

The white on red with the can really worked well

NICE! ❤ I love the use of various forms of printmaking on the crow piece

Wow. That stamp of the crow you just rustled up is AWESOME! Really wish you sold those.

FUN!! Thank you for expanding our possibilities!!! Brillant!!

Never done gel plates but this resonates for me so much .... really love this

RU-vid just recommended this video to me, and it IS my cup of tea. I always see smashed cans and think they're cool looking. I have never seen gel plate art.. linoleum block sort of stuff, but this is soooo cool. Going to check out more of your videos.

I love the way you think and your artistry is sublime. Thank you for this inspiring video, I’m going to relook at what I’m recycling before I move it out! I always look for your videos on gel plate printing, I learn a lot from you.

You never cease to amaze me, revealing new ways of seeing and creating art in unusual ways every time. BTW, thank you for mentioning your choice of heavy body paints; I wouldn’t have thought of that.

That can and cardboard make a nice couple. I'd put in a flower between them.

I love flat industrial things too. Love it!!!

Brilliant ideas! Definitely sparked my imagination! Time to dig up my Gelli Plate & get creative!

Thank you for making this 72 year old lady happy. Such interesting art. So glad I have seen your work and subscribed and am going to get all your previous videos. I still liked the can the most, specially the red and white, reminded me of roses. I'm South African, have lived in the UK for 18 years, lost my darling husband and now I'm going home to my daughter. If it wasn't for that I would have a wall full of your prints. Luckily RU-vid is in SA. Keep up your wonderful work and so pleased you are on my list. Left hand people are always special. I started left, but in those days they didn't like it..... But always enjoy artistic people. Thanks

You use a Gelli plate like no one else I've seen! I'm incredibly inspired. I love creating multi-media pieces using found objects, but I hadn't thought to use many of the found objects with the gel plate. Can't wait to go through your backlog of videos!

These are great, and so much more thoughtful than your typical gel plate run. I wanted to tell you about transferring images to gel plates from impressions with playdoh. I just watched a couple videos about it. Advantages it doesn’t much disturb the object of impression much at all, so you can try things you could not in your present method, which avoids destruction (like fine baskets and the like)you can impress objects much bigger that you couldn’t move (like manhole covers) easily to the plate. Plus then the playdoh doesn’t hurt your plate at all, and cleans off most paint itself, heading straight to a strong ghost print. I was impressed, having thought it sounded stupid or juvenile before viewing. Paint can be kneaded into the dough so it’s reusable a session or three. Check it out.

Fabulous! Good to have you back!!!

BRILLIANT… you are so talented!

Very interesting. So much information on techniques in this video. I’ll have to watch again as I’ve haven’t done much printing except at college. Gel printing seems fun. Thank you for the inspiration

The shirt print reminded me of Jim Dine. Well done. I enjoy your content. Thanks!

Oh my. Just wow. So much awesome information in these lessons here. Huge heartfelt thanks.

Thank you so very much. You are so outside the box no one can see your box from here. Love the way your mind works. Thank you again for sharing with us.😊

This is too cool. Keep it up

Mark!!! You are the BEST! Going to run and get one of my many old painting shirts right now!! Thank you!!!🙏

Absolutely 💯 %FABULOUS‼️

EXTRAORDINARY!!! MUCH Love & Respect...

Love the way your mind works 😊 Love your work. You inspire.

You are a champion artiste !! Thanks for challenging me to do something different on the Gel plate cheers from Australia. Last time I used a kids pair of shorts size 3/4 we used the pocket for a gift tag or store card

holly crap this is amazing! I feel my brain is now running a million miles an hr with the possibilities. Been experimenting with press moulds using ceramics and seeing this I realise I can play like this with 2D too. If it wasn't for the current train strike I would be on my way now to the art stores for supplies :)) Thank you for work, your an inspiration!

That hand is amazing!

That is amazing!

Love it! Thank you for expanding my world!
