Beautiful monoprinting ! It never ceases to amaze me the combination of materials that can be used on the Gel plate .Thank you - just LOVE your videos . Kind regards - Judi - Australia
That's all I have come up with so far as well . I do think they are beautiful in the float frames , although I haven't tried a 12x12 one yet . I am afraid that size would be too heavy in a floater but would love to try !! :)
Shari Replogle yes I also edged a tile with silver solder (I mess around with glass) and put cork material on the underside. Perhaps I should try grouting it into something.. it’s about the only thing I haven’t tried ha ha . Good luck with your Images Shari .
Another great project to watch! For some reason i still can't get any alcohol ink-like spreading at all on the gel press plate with the R&F white oil stick. Not sure what the problem is but I'll just enjoy one of the other methods you've demonstrated!! You are super talented and a great teacher!
@@ShariReplogle Yes i believe so. I haven't used the gel plate much at all since i bought it so maybe it hasn't something that i need to clean off before i try again.
Lovely. I like using the 4 inch tiles to make coasters. I've not tried them with the alcohol ink. Can you use a resin coat over the alcohol ink to protect them, or will that reactivate the ink?
Hi Kimberly! Yes you can resin them but you need to seal the alcohol ink on the tile before you add the resin or it fades the lines a bit. I use Krylon Kamar varnish . Have fun !
Beautiful results with the oilstick
Love all your experimenting...
Great fun to watch.. thank you 🙏
Thanks so much natural09100 !

Hi Judi ! Yes, I was delightfully surprised at this combo for sure ! Have fun :)
The tiles are great fun . I was thinking how to hang a bigger tile.. all I can think of is to make a floating frame ..!!

C Smith Thank you so much and have fun ! Are you using a rubber brayer to spread the layer very thin the plate ? Keep experimenting :)

Love your videos. Do you smooth the paper on the gel press with your hand instead of a brayer because a brayer would muddy it?
BOOM! you're awesome!
Can you actually use wax over the alcohol ink on the paper?

@@ShariReplogle terrific! Thanks for the tip!
Will the alcohol ink fade over time? I have been told it will, but I see so many artists using it with a number of other media.
Lovely work and great idea with the oil stick and alcohol inks..... did you use just regular printer/copy paper to pull those prints? Thanks :)
Karmakat59 Yes I used just regular copy paper for the prints on this video . It was Hammermill ink jet and laser . Have fun !
