Description

Create your own beautiful and unique artwork on paper, card or fabric at home without the expensive tools normally required for monoprinting. Gel plate printing is a mono printing technique using a plate made from gelatine/gelatine like material. NOTE: gel printing is totally addictive! The Gel plate supplied is a geniune GelliArts® plate - it is double sided, and can be reused over and over again, and is stored at room temperature. It is also Vegan. See GelliArts video here: https://youtu.be/G9_RbwLuzXs ★ Gel plate monoprinting starter kit containing step-by-step instruction guide with colour photos to help you create your own designs in the comfort of your own home. ★ The kit is designed for a beginner in monoprinting, or is new to using a gel plate and would like to investigate this wonderful medium ★ Contains 2 different types of acrylic paint for a large variety of applications ★ Included is a small bag of textural goodies and a stencil to get you off to start with your experimentation ★ Kit designed and made by me; a UK based Art and Design teacher and avid printmaker who loves nothing more than teaching others to share in my love of printmaking. ★ Each craft kit is handmade by me in my studio in Cornwall and all items in the kit are ones used and recommended by me in my own printmaking and teaching practice. ★ This would make an excellent present to give to someone who enjoys arts and crafts and can also be an amazingly enjoyable activity to do with friends or teenage children and younger ones ★ Carefully packed and shipped in appropriate packaging. Makes a wonderful gift. Please contact me if you have any questions. All artwork copyright © SubmergeArt 2020. Artwork may not be reproduced by any process without my permission
