Have you ever wondered what to do with that huge stack of geli papers that you have created?
On this episode of Susan McCreevy artist, Susan shares tips and techniques for protecting and utilizing papers in creative projects. Susan discusses using St. Ives frames, floating frames, gloss and UV varnish, and Yes Paste to glue heavier artwork. She also suggests making prints of finished paintings and gluing prints onto inexpensive canvas substrates. Susan also describes ways to use papers in baby board books, making jewelry pieces, and creating encaustic paintings. Additionally, Susan offers courses on gluing papers and adding details and shares insights on preventing paper discoloration and framing costs. Tune in for an informative discussion on how to preserve and utilize papers in art projects.

Just received my first plate, planning on making cards and perhaps canvases with them. Still checking out ideas and found your channel. This video is so inspiring! The jewelry had me at hello! I used to make jewelry for years but my hands no longer work the way they used to. Using the prints for it though is something I never would have known about if not for watching this. It may be something I can do and thank you for sharing your work and for sparking my creativity! 🩷🩵💜

I am brand new with discovering gelli plate printing. I haven’t even opened my plate yet and still tubing around to learn. Please no laughing at this question…because I’ve only seen thin types of paper being used, I’m wondering if good watercolor or mixed media paper can be used to pull your print? This artwork is so beautiful ! As a multi media artist I’d love to learn more and start incorporate prints into my work. Your work stands out for me and your calm voice helps me focus on learning, thank you

Hi Deb, thanks! 😀 If you buff the wax with a soft lint free cloth it develops a shine. It will develop a bloom over time but that can be removed by gently buffing the surface again.

Thank you for this video! For the step to prep your wooden board first to seal it before adding your paper, is there any reason why you use gloss medium instead of mat medium or gesso or anything else? I'm planning to mount some of my gelatin plate prints which I've made using block printing ink and I'm working out what products I need (I'm in the U.S.)
@susanmccreevyartist

Susan, you mentioned that you put encaustic wax on top of your gelli prints. What do you put on the gelli prints before applying the wax because encaustic wax won't adhere to acrylic (assuming that you used acrylic paint on your gelli prints) ?

Hi Charlotte, I usually source mine in the bargain shops that sell food and household stuff, they usually have a baby book section. The ones you are looking for are for younger children, they are hard pages so that the babies don’t rip them. Car boot sales and charity shops, eBay are also good places to source them. You won’t find them in art shops. Below is a link for amazon with a set of 4 😀📚 amzn.eu/d/8Ykvjiz
