What does that mean for you?
You can explore printmaking at home with out a printing press and still be excited about the prints you pull. You can even do it with your grandkids or other artist friends.
If you are interested in developing your compositional skills, then you may want to try gelatin printing. Pulling prints is so fast that you know immediately if your design and compositions are working.
You quickly learn about:
- division of space
- leading the viewer around your print
- variety and repetition of marks and images
I find there is a dynamic balance between play and guided discovery when making gelatin prints. This makes learning fast and fun.
