Printing on Fabric
These prints were made with a Gelli plate onto white cotton fabric. I used acrylic paints to build up layers of prints. More layers of paint were added over the top with commercial and hand-made stamps. Later I'll sew over the top.

Print Making With Traci - Week 1
I'm currently taking the free class "Bold, Expressive, and Unconventional Printmaking" with Traci Bautista from Strathmore Online Workshops. You can still join in the workshop.
Here are some of my prints from week one. I used a Gelli plate with home-made foam, lino and glue gun stamps, commercial stamps, acrylics, ink pads and India ink applied with a pipette. All instructions on how to make the stamps and prints can be found in the class link above.
