@VikkiReed Год назад

Hi Stacy, thank you! I'm not completely clear about your question...I have not been successful in gelli printing directly on canvas, but I frequently use my gelli prints in art on canvas and board. I have several videos that describe using the gelli prints to first create a base, and then create a mixed media piece. Here are some options..."How to Use Gelli Prints for Collage Projects - Creating A Base - Part 1" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bkJv-4zrexM.html and "Creating a Mixed Media Collage Bird Project" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2X-Dgrld29E.html , then most recently, "Mixed Media Flower Collage with Gelli Prints & Acrylics" - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q5wbld-blwI.html I hope that helps!

It is 1:30 pm in Ontario Canada. I’m a real beginner and ADORE your videos and your relaxed style! Can I use stamps to add words to my gelli print? Thank you😊

@VikkiReed Месяц назад

Hello Kristine! I'm so happy you're enjoying the videos and thank you for your question! Yes, you can use stamps, it is a bit tricky, and you must remember to do it backward, that is, put your word on the plate in reverse, so that when you pull the print it will read the way you wish it to read! A bit of self promotion here, I do have a stencil set of words, here's the link, vikkireed.com/buy-acrylic-paintings/ols/products/word-stencil-mask-set and of course, those need to be put on the plate backwards as well.

@joannclupper7902 2 года назад

Recently became interested in this type of art. I consider myself lucky that I found you today. You have already taught me so much in just two videos. What I am wondering about is you have some stark jagged white patches when you pull the print off. I'm wondering if there's a way that you can pull it off more gently or systematically so that you don't get those stark sharp white patches on your print. Also, sometimes on your print I see a line or two in the center. I wonder if those lines came from your brayer perhaps.

@VikkiReed 2 года назад

JoAnn thank you for your questions! Yes, sometimes there are white patches on the print due to various factors, a newer plate will have that more often, the moisture level of the paint and plate affects things and yes, the brayer can leave lines. The nature of the gelli plate is that it is hard to "control", and that equally is part of the magic! I hope you have as much fun as I've been having! Happy creating!

@bonniedoody3831 2 года назад

Vikki could you do more with the interference colors? They are stunning on the black. I wonder what they would look like on colored paper.

@VikkiReed 2 года назад

Bonnie, yes! I am experimenting more with the interference colors, both on gessoed canvas (black) and dark background paper, I will play with other colors of paper and see what happens, thank you for your suggestion!

@heathergray373 2 года назад

What was the clear paint you used instead of white I was too slow to see it on the video. Really enjoying them thank you

@VikkiReed 2 года назад

Heather, I want to answer your question but I don't remember using clear paint, and I watched the video and still didn't see where I used clear paint. I use fluid acrylics for the most part, some of them are very transparent. If you are purchasing a Golden Fluid Acrylic there is a little dash of the color over some black marks on the front of the bottle which show the transparency. I hope that is what you were wanting to know! Thank you

@mariaganiaris7088 Год назад

Hello, I'm really enjoying your videos. I just started doing monoprinting in an intro class that is so much fun. One question I have is can you use acrylic paints in tubes? I have so many from years ago.

Maria, thank you for your comment and question, yes, absolutely you can use the heavy body acrylics for your gelli prints. A GREAT artist to watch for that is Yeates Makes on RU-vid...he uses Amsterdam pigments quite a bit!

Hello 👋🏼 I just came across your channel and saw the gelli beginner video which led me here. I’m only 1:36 into this video and already have a question 🙋‍♀️ Tyvek… what kind? Where? Confused as I just looked it up. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@VikkiReed Год назад

Hi Michelle, thank you for your question! The Tyvek I am using is from repurposed USPS (Priority Mail) envelopes, it is very thin and durable which makes it ideal for gelli printing. I've tried purchasing the commercially available Tyvek, but it is thicker and more difficult to work with. If you can't find Tyvek, manila folders that you can cut into shapes is the next best option, I hope that helps!

@VikkiReed 2 года назад

@LovinglfDesigns 2 года назад

Do you cut your masks from metal dies?

Hi Catherine, thank you for your question! The first stencil used in the video is a Crafter's Workshop stencil, I'm sorry I don't have the name of it, but you can shop Joggles.com to see if they have it, they will definitely have the second stencil which is a Elizabeth St. Hilare Stencil from the Klimt collection - Gustave and Emile #75012. Joggles.com is a fantastic source for stencils, but of course there are many other places you can purchase stencils as well. The butterfly shapes are cut out of Tyvek, I made them myself. I hope that helps!
