Simple changes – Big improvement – gelatin prints

When I started exploring gelatin printmaking, I just played with the process and found methods by trial and error.

Making prints with the gel plate is so fast that learning can happen very quickly.

These 2 gelatin plate prints are what I call the detailed impression. It is the print that is made by the ink that is left under your stencils. Generally this print shows the details and texture of the stencil.

For example if you were to zoom in on the thread you would see the tiny fibers.

I think that the yellow and blue print is stronger and more interesting. They are both very similar to make but I made a few small changes to create the yellow and blue print.

These are the types of techniques that we will learn to master in the next session of Make Monotypes.
