Colored watercolor pencils.😊
What a great demo. Finally, someone doing great stuff on a gelli plate!
@@LeslieParsons-f3v thank you!
Thank you so much ❤
Great technique and exciting way to monoprint .thank you for your tutorial. I have learned new things about Gelli printing.
Thank you
I did enjoy it very much, thank you!
Lovely,Thanks for sharing. Your work is beautiful. I really enjoy the demonstration! I’ve bought a plate a while ago made some prints and they came out nice, but you took it to another level. It inspired me. Thank you much !!!
You're very welcome I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Love your collage, May you pls.tell us what Brown paper youre using?
It's a tan paper by Strathmore they also do grey.
What paper weight are using
Not sure about the weight its a tan paper by Strathmore.
Nice.Thank you for sharing.
Very welcome
Lovely to see you process, Lin - thank you for sharing. The artgraf graphite looks very interesting - I've seen someone playing with their graphite in a tin before now (not coloured), but I really like the 'tailor's chalk' style shape of those ones you had. I lovedhow the charcoal blended so nicely into the wet media as soon as you added it - very satisfying!
Safia, the Artgraf graphite is lovely, they don't come in many colours, but as you can see in the vid, when you add water it's very rich. the graphite is also lovely and silky and the shape is great.
Really enjoyed watching this technique. I learned a lot. Thank you so much! Beautiful papers!
Glad you found it useful
Really enjoyable watching your process and also listening to you two lovely ladies chatting. Thank you both so much
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice prints
Thank you! Cheers!
This was excellent! I enjoyed it and learned from it. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent demo
Thank you
😊
What color was the Golden?
Sorry it's taken me so long to reply! Gerrie the Golden paint colour was Red Oxide.
It was red oxide a favourite. Lovely rich deep colour.
What size are your papers used here? I can’t wait to try this out!! Also what size plate is this? Thanks for a wonderful demonstration😊
Gerrie, I was mostly using A4 paper.
Didn’t think to use multiple sheets and I do like the tan colour paper and your choice of colour palette. Definitely going to give this a go. Thanks for sharing your techniques.
Have fun!
I needed this! Especially when i want to scream because my work is feeling.... weird. The question that i do have is how do i change the weird into a series? What mean is, whatever i am feeling making artwork i want to be able to make it into 3's so it feels like a 'statement' and not just a lone wolf, if i am making sense. How do i keep the feeling (whatever it is) so it makes a cohesive sense? Thanks for your post!
I think keep persevering. Sometimes journaling, writing down the feeling, the intention, the energy, colours, marks, intention. Also work will develop and move on too!
Thank you so much! I really think using several sheets covering parts of the gel plate leads to much more interesting prints.
Helps I think.
It's so nice to see someone tries new things with the gelliplate, thank you!
Now I need to get out my gel plate, and have a play!
You really inspire me to make bold moves, to be brave in my paintings. Beautiful work, and thank you!
Promo*SM 🤔
Excellent video discussion! Helped me a lot! Lin is an amazing teacher. Really enjoying and learning a lot in her class!
I totally agree! I love walking and riding my stationary bike to get me centered every day! Rock on!🙌
I know I'd still been walking but not the pilates. The breathing and stretching makes a tonne of difference. Limbering up to get creative.
Extremely useful and interesting to watch - thank you. I'm not sure why I'd not considered mixing complementaries when playing this way or at least not in a deliberate sense. Definitely going to check out your book - trying to find time for art in amongst busy IRL stuff is exactly my situation, lol.
Glad it was helpful! Real life does get in the way sometimes not matter how much we may not want it too. Hope you enjoy the book.
"Notice what you're noticing" and then "honour that noticing" - these are so true and things I have only just come to realise. I had a revelation just a month or so ago of realising what I was noticing and now I have ideas that I'm now wondering how to express. I am sitting with it - and it was so reassuring to hear you both discuss how sometimes that is a necessary part of the process: to just take your time and allow things to cogitate for a while and not push or rush things. Just play, explore and allow the art to show itself in its own sweet time. Such an interesting discussion - thank you so much for sharing
Hello Safia, thank you for posting a comment. Really great to hear that the conversation with Cheryl resonated.
Your art is very interesting and beautiful!!!!!!
Thank you so much 😀
This is a rewarding listen. Bravo Lin and Bettina x
hi just discovered you, happy, its funny whilst watching you place your papers, I sitting here saying , i would put that there or this here and don't cover that up, so funny, but love it we are all so individual, its wonderful
May I ask where u purchased your gel plate , if that’s whar it’s called ! Love your work
Hi Margaret, the brand is a Gelli Plate, I bought mine locally from a small art supplies company. You can get them on Amazon, from Jackson's Art Supplies in the UK.
@@lincheungart thank u so much
great way of art working !
Thank you very much!
Nice
What graphite stick are u using please it looks more like a wax crayon⁉️
Hi Reni, I think I got it from local art shop possibly unbranded. Lyra do some fairly chunky ones. I just did a quick search for chunky graphite and loads of options came up.
I like it turned on it’s side the way I see it….. looks like a farm scene!
So it does!
Great demo!
Thanks.
Loved it!!
Thank you very much 😊
I've been gel printing for years, and somehow, I forgot about this technique. Loved watching you create.
I know it's not rocket science is it? Very effective as a way of working though, I love it!
Really love this way of working with the gel press. I’ve actually been exploring using in this way also. As more of a “brush” or compositional tool. I could imagine working with a canvas or cradle board and a very, very large plate!
I know me too, I've been looking around to find a larger one. If you're in the UK Jackson's Art Supplies have some larger ones.
Lawrence in Brighton do a 16 x 20 inch plate.
@@rozwallace1143 excellent thank you
you can always make your own!
Beautiful - thank you for sharing ❤
Welcome, glad you liked it.
Super listening to you both & seeing how your art evolves & sometimes changes. Also, interesting to go back & notice what we regularly do- marks, colours etc. Love both of your paintings. Thanks so inspiring.
Our pleasure Melanie glad you enjoyed the conversation
Thanks Melanie - glad you enjoyed it 🌿🌿 yes, reflecting can be super useful, is a really important part of my practice, looking back to look forward - like a guide ✨✨
Thank you very much, both of you, for sharing this really interesting review/discussion. I feel quite fired up now!
Thanks Patricia it's been a busy year for both of us. And looking forward to more of the same I hope.
Woohoo! Great to hear Patricia 🔥 glad you enjoyed it 🌿🌿
Love these videos. Two fantastic artists sharing insights - doesn't get any better than that!
Glad you like them! We do have doing these.
This is very useful Lyn. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this. it has really helped. I remember painting at school, an abstract with black lines and filling in with colours, (very 60s), the teacher told me I would come unstuck, meaning I would end up with two colours together probably. Number 1 question to myself! Second question when I said I'd like to be a dress designer, my Dad saying its not just drawing pictures, but knowing about darts etc. My 12 year old self thinking oh I don't know how to do that! After a career in accountancy at the age of 51 I did a foundation art course, hooked I went on to gain 1st BA Hons and started a MA, which wasn't' taking me where I wanted to go. Anyway, 8 years later still trying to find my voice and still get paralyzed when I think of making art, those two things must really be playing on my mind, crazy! Your work has inspired me to get back and start whatever the outcome, so thank you x
So many artists don't find their way back until later in life, I was one of those too, I am now full time as a professional artist and teacher and couldn't be happier. Definitely worth sticking with it.
I love your work and have followed you for several years. It’s a treat to actually watch you work. Thank you for sharing your talent. Wishing you all the best.
Awe thank you Becky, I really appreciate that and your regular comments and feedback are lovely.
Terrific demo, thanks Lin❣️I enjoyed the interaction between you and Sally Anne
Thanks Tricia, we are really enjoying working together. It's good fun, our work has enough similarities and differences to make discussion interesting.
