3. Materials
Gelli plate printing. This month I will be uploading 2 new videos about gelli plate printing. The first was released on 1st February and was all about how to get started; guiding you through the equipment needed, printing your first monoprints and how to clean up at the end.
The second video on 15th February is all about mono printing on to feathers to create your own funky designs.
