Those were amazing stunning prints, I’m new to gelli printing, and have just found you on UA-cam. Yes please, I would like to see more of these prints 😊
It was the same with me just a few months ago. I watched videos of professional printers because I was thinking about getting a press. As obviously no one had tried etching inks on the Gelli Plate before, I thought I’d give it a try. That also led to building up my channel. Now I am usually slightly disappointed when I use acrylics…have fun trying it! 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀🎨

Thanks Annette! I have published the second part already: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html please also consider visiting my shop (link in the info box below the videos)...🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
I am doing that quite often, and I never have any trouble with the Akua, especially not with the cleaning. Thank you Kat! 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨 p.s. I do have a press now, but never use it as I am so busy with the Gelli videos…😅
Is there no end to the Gelli's potential!!!? Brilliant. I was thinking about using my Charbonnel ink on my Gelli plates only two days ago, but was concerned about getting the stuff off. I'm glad this popped up.
Thank you so much for this nice comment! Yes the Charbonnel works great, but I find the Akua just a little bit more interesting, and easier to get off..🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
@@tinasart5720 good to know. My Charbonnel is in a tin and has dried out quite a bit anyway! I will use a different container in future. I used charcoal transfers instead.
@@tinasart5720 it can be hit and miss. I used tracing paper, and applied white acrylic first. Then neons. It seems to not overlay well beginning with dark colours.
Your technique creates such marvelous prints! I would love to see how you developed them further. Also I have some questions 1) does this work with acrylics? 2) Does the etching ink damage the Gelli Plate? How do you clean it? Thanks for a great video!
Thank you so much! obviously you found the second part of that video? This absolutely works with acrylics, but I find that the etching inks give me much more interesting structures that inspire me to develop further. I have new videos out where I try the Golden Open acrylics, which are ultra fine and slow drying, so you can work with them similarly than with the etching inks and are not as messy. You don’t need pick up colors with them, as you have a very long time until you print them. The etching inks do not damage the Gel plate, the Akua (soy based) you can clean up with soap and water, the oil based (Charbonnel and all others) you can get off with any vegetable oil. and then clean the oil off with soap or baby wipes. Have fun trying it! Cheers from Berlin, Tina 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨🌸
sorry for getting back so late...thanks for the music compliment! The inks give me (most times) more interesting patterns and structures/ shapes, and are therefore more inspiring for me when I work them out. They are messy to work with, but give much more details as to their very fine pigmentation... I made quite a few videos where I compare them to acrylics...🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
I am interested in seeing how you went further to develop the prints. Are they all painted layers on one composition? Or, do you collage them together later? I do this also with textiles.
I have published the second part already: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html I am not very good at collage 😬, do you collage with the textiles? thank you 🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️
Yes! I’d like to learn more about your process. How did you choose between etching ink and intaglio? I take it they are both water-soluable? I never heard of Charbonnel brand ink . . .
Thank you for your comment, I have published part 2 of this video already: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html. The overall "family" is etching ink, and they come as intaglio ink or relief ink. For the Gelli Plate, you can use both. All of them are oil based, except for Akua intaglio, which is soy based and therefor easier to clean off tools and hands. 🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
Love the video and effects. What is the benefit of the etching ink over normal acrylic paint? Is it the transparency of the ink? Would live to try this out, but i have a lot of acrylic to use up 😊
well you can compare the paints as I do all the time, if you purchase maybe one tube of etching ink first. The etching ink gives a much finer print as it is so highly pigmented. Among the Acrylics, I find that the Golden Open slow-drying paint does the best job - it takes long to dry, so you don't have the acrylics dry on you so fast, and it is also very high pigmented. I love them all, but the etching ink gives me unexpected effects usually that I need for being inspired to work the prints out more. These effects can be similarly achieved with acrylics and deli paper (pick up paper) though. Thank you!🙏🏼🎨
@@tinasart5720 Looking forward to it. You make it look so easy, but I know from experience that gelli art can be a trial to come up with something that actually looks artsy. I overthink everything and get frustrated when I end up with pages and pages of "meh"... lol
I absolutely love your work. What is the difference between using printing ink and acrylic paint? BTW I totally enjoy your music. I used Shazam to find it!
thank you so much! 🙏🏼 I have published several videos where I compare the two kinds of paint. I prefer etching inks because they give so many unusual textures and patterns, and they produce a lot more detail to work out later. 🙋🏻♀️🎨
To answer that, you'd have to watch more of my other videos. I print with etching inks more than with regular acrylics, because the ink gives me much more details. I also made videos comparing the two, for example: ua-cam.com/video/aI4KvDR4m3s/v-deo.html and: ua-cam.com/video/n_qUifbKay4/v-deo.html When you use etching ink, it never dries while the paper is on the gel plate, it is a paint that does not dry by air, but by being absorbed by the paper.

And don't make the layer too thick, then it takes much longer to dry...thank you! 🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
As the etching inks, also the Akua, do not dry on the Gelli plate (they only dry by being absorbed by paper or fabric), you don’t have to wait at all for the ghost print…🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️
I love the effects. How do you clean the ink off your Gelli plate afterwards? I make my own gel plates, which seem to last forever, but don’t know if I’d use this type of ink on them, unless I could remove it properly.
thank you!… Any kind of vegetable oil will do, with some tissue - but if you use the Akua paint, you can get it off with soap or dish detergent water, as it is soy based and therefor water soluble. 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨🌸
Hello Tina. I love your tutorials. Could I ask if it is easy to clean etching ink from the gel plate when you are finished a project? I have never used etching ink before....
hey Jaqui, thank you so much 🙏🏽! Etching ink is always a little messy, but it comes off the Gelli Plate and other tools best with a little linseed oil, I think any oil will do. Afterwards I clean the oil off with a baby wipe, so that I don’t have it on the Gel Plate, which would make a resist. Akua etching ink is soy based, and comes off much more easily. Also, I like the Akua effect the best. Hope that helps…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨
Yes you can, I just think that the etching ink gives me more interesting structures to inspire me. And more time, as it dries slowly. The Golden Open are great acrylics for this, as they also dry very slowly (depending on the weather). 🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
I admit, I've wondered about this combination! Thanks for posting. (I assume the Chsrbonnel is "Aqua Wash" ink? I've heard that oil-based inks are a bad idea on gelli.)
Actually I don't use the Aqua Wash at all. I use the oil based, and it is no problem with the gel plate, you can get everything off with other oils. I use vegetable oils for that. And I have different brayers. Recently though I am back with acrylics, as the Golden Open are also very slow-drying and give good effects. The secret to both is: only use a thin layer. 🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼🎨
Hi Tina… I have a quick question… on the first pull with Saran Wrap, how long did you wait before pulling the wrap off? Loving the process. Your works are beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
thank you so much! You don’t have to wait at all, as the etching ink won’t dry on the Gelli plate anyway. Just press down some wrinkles, depending on how strong you want the effect. 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️💝
Thank you for your quick reply, Tina! Got my supplies today... looking forward to getting lost in the journey! Again... thank you from Texas! @@tinasart5720
Well yes it does actually, as the etching ink is so sticky and messy. You have a tiny spot somewhere and it ends up all over the place. It was smeared on my dog once! 🐶 😂
@@AnetteY11 that is actually a great idea! Made a print once, just painting on the cling film directly. My hero Gerda Lipski @gerdalipski made a Video about it!
The Akua intaglio ink is soy based and can be picked up with wet paper which makes a more intensive print. The Cranfield inks are oil based, as well as the Charbonnel inks, both for intaglio and relief. The oil based inks are harder to get off tools and hands, the Akua you can wash off with soap or baby wipes….in my next video I am trying to combine them, with less success…yes the daisies - I apologized to the bees as well 🙂🐝
@@FR-wc2dn it is absolutely not running at all. Doesn’t damage the Gel plate, but is a bit of a hassle to get it off, with oil and baby wipes. After a day of drying it is dry enough to draw on it, but I usually use a glove when I’m doing that, as not to smear any residues. Sorry for the late answer…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀🎨
Ich hab eine Frage zu der Farbe. Ich habe auch eine Dose etching ink (geschenkt bekommen). Die Farbe ist aber sehr dick und ich könnte sie gar nicht ausrollen. Normalerweise wird sie auf erwärmten Metalldruckplatten verwendet. Hast du das irgendwie verdünnt oder erwärmt?
Hi Katharina, meine sind aus der Tube und/ oder aus der Dose fertig ausrollfähig. Welcher Hersteller ist das? Wenn das ölbasiert ist, kann es sein daß du es ohne Wärme mit Öl verdünnen kannst. Und: Es gibt ja zu fast allem in der Welt irgendwelche UA-cam Videos. Eine sehr gute etching ink Künstlerin ist Marta Dyer-Smith @collagraphprinting Sie ist auch sehr hilfsbereit, frag sie mal. Und ein toller Kanal, sie macht fast nur abstraktes. 🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️🌸
Hello Marja, the Akua intaglio ink is soy-based, which is like water-based and easier to clean, the Charbonnel ink is oil-based…Greets from Berlin! 🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️
I just saw that the paper was Bristol paper, not printing paper. I guess that makes sense if you aren’t soaking the paper and also are applying acrylics??
Thank you for your comment! Actually the printing paper or watercolor paper is better to paint on afterwards, but the Bristol is working good as well, and a lot cheaper, that's why I wanted to try it. For drawing on, the Bristol is great. 🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼
…thanks for telling me that. I made a video without any music: ua-cam.com/video/9tP0WB0fJ0c/v-deo.html and it was one of the least successful so far. I personally work without music most times. I think I will give it another try and make another one without music. Anybody who wants to make a comment for or against that? Appreciate that you take the time to comment…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨

Hi Tina- lovely!!
Why etching ink ( as opposed to ordinary ink)??
And do you let the paper dry on the plate before removing or not?
Thank you x

@tinasart5720 ah, thank you very much!
i like that
thanks! This is the second part:

Beautiful yes pls
Thank you…🎨🌸🙏🏽
"Urgent wish" 😂 I really understand this kind of need
…it is the wide spread Gelli addiction…😅🙋🏻♀️🎨
@@tinasart5720 I WISH mine was limited to gelli and just a few other formats. (my workshop is an ongoing fight 😆)
I love the effects. How do you clean the ink off your Gelli plate afterwards? I make my own gel plates, which seem to last forever, but don’t know if I’d use this type of ink on them, unless I could remove it properly.
thank you!… Any kind of vegetable oil will do, with some tissue - but if you use the Akua paint, you can get it off with soap or dish detergent water, as it is soy based and therefor water soluble. 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨🌸
Do you use 2 pieces of glass? One for paper and one for the painting?
One for the Gelli plate to sit on, and one for the paint to roll out on. 🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️
I would like to see a video about adding color.
I have published Part 2 already:

yes please, show you the working out and developing of the prints as well.

thank you...🙏🏼🎨
Hello Tina. I love your tutorials. Could I ask if it is easy to clean etching ink from the gel plate when you are finished a project? I have never used etching ink before....
hey Jaqui, thank you so much 🙏🏽! Etching ink is always a little messy, but it comes off the Gelli Plate and other tools best with a little linseed oil, I think any oil will do. Afterwards I clean the oil off with a baby wipe, so that I don’t have it on the Gel Plate, which would make a resist. Akua etching ink is soy based, and comes off much more easily. Also, I like the Akua effect the best. Hope that helps…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨
Thanks so much!@@tinasart5720
Se puede hacer todo con pintura acrílica?
Yes you can, I just think that the etching ink gives me more interesting structures to inspire me. And more time, as it dries slowly. The Golden Open are great acrylics for this, as they also dry very slowly (depending on the weather). 🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🎨
I admit, I've wondered about this combination! Thanks for posting.
(I assume the Chsrbonnel is "Aqua Wash" ink? I've heard that oil-based inks are a bad idea on gelli.)
Actually I don't use the Aqua Wash at all. I use the oil based, and it is no problem with the gel plate, you can get everything off with other oils. I use vegetable oils for that. And I have different brayers. Recently though I am back with acrylics, as the Golden Open are also very slow-drying and give good effects. The secret to both is: only use a thin layer. 🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼🎨
Oh! Thanks 👍
Hi Tina… I have a quick question… on the first pull with Saran Wrap, how long did you wait before pulling the wrap off? Loving the process. Your works are beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
thank you so much! You don’t have to wait at all, as the etching ink won’t dry on the Gelli plate anyway. Just press down some wrinkles, depending on how strong you want the effect. 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️💝
Thank you for your quick reply, Tina! Got my supplies today... looking forward to getting lost in the journey! Again... thank you from Texas! @@tinasart5720
Sorry, can’t understand- do you use gelli plate or just a piece of glass? Thank you
I always use the Gelli Plate. You can try glass with a slow-drying paint, but the effects are a lot less nice...welcome 🙏🏼🎨
@@tinasart5720 thank you very much!
I would love to see how you develop these prints with pencils.
thank you Doris, I have already published the 2nd part: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨🌸
Are you using oil based ink?
Caligo and Charbonnel are oil based, Akua is soy based, which I like the best. Easier to clean, nice fine paints…Thank you Carmel! 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨
What do you do with the cling wrap when you're done? Can you reuse it somehow or does it end up in the landfill?
Well yes it does actually, as the etching ink is so sticky and messy. You have a tiny spot somewhere and it ends up all over the place. It was smeared on my dog once! 🐶 😂
I wonder if the clingfilm could be used to make a second impression.
@@AnetteY11 that is actually a great idea! Made a print once, just painting on the cling film directly. My hero Gerda Lipski @gerdalipski made a Video about it!
Great fun! I'd love to see what you do next with these beauties ❤
BTW I'm a Gerda fan also! Greetings from the west coast of Canada
@@daisywilliamson681 I have published the second part already: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html. 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀🎨
Are the etching inks water based? Btw I totally get your apology to the daisies at 5:28 😢
The Akua intaglio ink is soy based and can be picked up with wet paper which makes a more intensive print. The Cranfield inks are oil based, as well as the Charbonnel inks, both for intaglio and relief. The oil based inks are harder to get off tools and hands, the Akua you can wash off with soap or baby wipes….in my next video I am trying to combine them, with less success…yes the daisies - I apologized to the bees as well 🙂🐝
@@tinasart5720 Will the Akua intaglio ink damage the gel plate? And does it take a long time to dry? Is it runnier than acrylic paint?
@@FR-wc2dn it is absolutely not running at all. Doesn’t damage the Gel plate, but is a bit of a hassle to get it off, with oil and baby wipes. After a day of drying it is dry enough to draw on it, but I usually use a glove when I’m doing that, as not to smear any residues. Sorry for the late answer…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀🎨
Ich hab eine Frage zu der Farbe. Ich habe auch eine Dose etching ink (geschenkt bekommen). Die Farbe ist aber sehr dick und ich könnte sie gar nicht ausrollen. Normalerweise wird sie auf erwärmten Metalldruckplatten verwendet.
Hast du das irgendwie verdünnt oder erwärmt?
Hi Katharina, meine sind aus der Tube und/ oder aus der Dose fertig ausrollfähig. Welcher Hersteller ist das? Wenn das ölbasiert ist, kann es sein daß du es ohne Wärme mit Öl verdünnen kannst. Und: Es gibt ja zu fast allem in der Welt irgendwelche UA-cam Videos. Eine sehr gute etching ink Künstlerin ist Marta Dyer-Smith @collagraphprinting Sie ist auch sehr hilfsbereit, frag sie mal. Und ein toller Kanal, sie macht fast nur abstraktes. 🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️🌸
Jana: how long do you have to wait before pulling up the print? As an old printmaker this possibility speaks to me.
...you mean with the etching ink? You dont have to wait at all, as it prints immediately into the paper...thank you! 🙋🏻♀️🎨
What’s with all the plastic and healthy flowers.
Hello! Is this etching ink water-based or oil-based?
Hello Marja, the Akua intaglio ink is soy-based, which is like water-based and easier to clean, the Charbonnel ink is oil-based…Greets from Berlin! 🙏🏽🎨🙋🏻♀️
@@tinasart5720 thank you! ))
Yes yes yes please
thank you Ann🙏🏽! here is part 2 of this video: ua-cam.com/video/5o8S2DZ2GHo/v-deo.html
I just saw that the paper was Bristol paper, not printing paper. I guess that makes sense if you aren’t soaking the paper and also are applying acrylics??
Thank you for your comment! Actually the printing paper or watercolor paper is better to paint on afterwards, but the Bristol is working good as well, and a lot cheaper, that's why I wanted to try it. For drawing on, the Bristol is great. 🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼
Please let us see how you finish the piece!

is that a compliment? sorry am not a native speaker…
Do you have any instagram account?
yes it’s on my channel site…🙏🏽🎨
I enjoyed the demo, but would MUCH rather hear you talk about it than listen to music. What is it with all the music on videos?!
…thanks for telling me that. I made a video without any music: ua-cam.com/video/9tP0WB0fJ0c/v-deo.html and it was one of the least successful so far. I personally work without music most times. I think I will give it another try and make another one without music. Anybody who wants to make a comment for or against that? Appreciate that you take the time to comment…🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️🎨
I would like to a video
thank you, Part 2 has been published too...🙏🏼
