I've just started watching the video so haven't seen the whole thing yet... but just wanted to say that underpainting is just gorgeous!
Why thank you!
I want to thank you for using the papers to do beautiful art...I used to say.."now what do i do with these papers"?...Now I know...Lovely..Margy
Yes! Give them new life Margery. 😊
Thank you, Elizabeth for all the instructions you share with us. I have learned so much from you in the world of collage.
Happy to help!
You are amazing! I am inspired and my spirit lifted just watching you. I have so many gel papers and some paintings that I wasn't totally pleased with. I'm going to revamp them with my gel prints. First I have to tear myself away from watching your videos!
Oh thank you so much Linda! :) I appreciate that so very much.
Beautiful painting.
Thanks you I appreciate that
I LOVE this! I can't stop staring at the painting underneath, beautiful right from the start!
Thanks so much! The collage makes it even better!
I love the bright colorful flowers against that beautiful teal. So much contrast and beauty of my favorite colors!
Never get tired of watching your inspirational tidbits!!!
I think I need to make more papers and get some new brushes too....Thanks Elizabeth.
Oh I need new brushes too! You’re very welcome. Oh hugs to you and Todd
i love your tutorials Elizabeth! thanks for the never-ending supply of great ideas
You’re very welcome!
You are amazing! 🥰
Awe thanks!
Your paintings are gorgeous even before you collage!
Why thank you Mae!
It was so great to see you collage. Beautiful work.
Thanks Tonia!
Another great tutorial.
I love the spontaneity of your choosing and tearing of the paper Elizabeth. Great fun to watch you select, tear and stick! x
Thanks So much Simone.

Wonderful tutorial Elizabeth. I love the permission to make lots of gelli prints. Thank you for sharing
My pleasure Janet, I’m glad you enjoyed it
Hi just saw your pieces at the fine art center. Loved them. New to your city and I found out your are based here also. Hope to see you there soon one day.
Hello! Thanks so much. I teach there at the SAC Fine Arts Center, workshops, if you are ever interested I also teach at Crocker Art Museum: PaperPaintings.com/workshops
بسیارزیبا سپاسگذارم درود از ایران🥰🌹خوشم اومد تازه در کانالتون عضو شدم وشما خانوم خلاقی هستید وباسلیقه
Kirigami Japanese paper art is a medium that I love. Your techniques remind me of that with the twist of your lovely painted paper. I am a paper fusion artist using cutting techniques alone with painting, embossing and quilling . I think I would like to try including some of your techniques as well. Thanks for sharing your art, skills and techniques. Marjorie from Georgia US.
Thanks so much Marjorie! Sounds like you have a lot of paper skills!!
So happy to see you!
Thanks for being here!

Amazing patienc thx
It’s therapeutic!
Thank you for another great tutorial Elizabeth. Have you ever used Yupo paper in your collages? (-: Marion
It will not glue down flat. It’s not porous
Do you use only rice papers on your pieces or can you use other mediums like copy paper, cardstock, or deli paper?
I prefer rice paper.
Thank you Elizabeth! What is your favorite paper to gel print on for use in collaging? Normal good copy paper or something else? Thank you! Lynn
Good question! Here’s what I use : shrsl.com/3c7o8
Awesome video as always! Any tips for preventing wrinkles in the glued pieces?
Several ways to avoid that. Join me on Patreon
Absolutely love this❤
Why thank you Lynn
I love watching and learning from your videos. Beautiful work. What do you use for your line work?
Thanks so much! I use several different options, Stabilo Woodys, Posca pens, etc. The products are all on my Amazon page: www.amazon.com/shop/paper-paintings-collage-artwork
Omg.. so I just discovered you! I've been watching u all day!. Awesome videos. You said any paper.. but don't they have to be acid free? I've also heard about deli paper.. but cant find if that's acid free.
Hi Belinda, nothing has to be acid free, the glue is archival and acid free and each piece of paper is encapsulated in that so. I use all kinds of found papers plus rice paper and deli paper and sheet music and old books and etc.
@@ElizabethStHilaire Thank you so much.. I've had so many ideas to incorporate them in my paintings. I didnt want to sell something not of good quality. Btw.. ur an awesome instructor. Also, I see ur from Fl.. so am i.. Miami, Fl. Thx again🤗
@@belindaroca4577 thank you! I used to be in Fl, in CA now!
Thanks so much Elizabeth
Did you collage over the flowers too? Were you happier with it in the end?
I like how the paint work, became like a colour map for your collage.
In kindred spirit,
Eliza

Hello Eliza! Yes I did collage it and I’m always happy with it in the end that way!!
Will you be doing any workshops in Toronto Canada?
Sadly, no. My whole schedule for two years is on my website: PaperPaintings.com/workshops
Very cool! Would you recommend staying with lighter weight papers for collage or is heavy cardstock okay?
I never use card stock because it’s difficult to tear accurately, but you could give it a try.
Thanks!
Great tutorial. Just purchased the brush but wondered why you use gloss rather than Matt gel medium. Could I use either ? Many thanks
Matte products reduce the intensity of your color as they are not optically clear.
@@ElizabethStHilaire thank you !
I love this! If you have a wealth of available papers, I think this would be very relaxing. I just found your channel but I'm loving your gel prints. Do you seal these paintings or are they just getting sealed along the way with the gloss?
They do get sealed along the way with the gloss, but it tends to be uneven. Ultimately I seal them with a UV protective acrylic varnish for an even sheen
It is super relaxing !!
Beautiful! Does modpodge work for the gluing part too? What s the difference?
Mod Podge is a craft material that is not archival.
How long do your brushes usually last you?
oh I have no idea! LOL
Why the need for gel printing? You can just paint directly on papers no?
The papers I create with the gel plate far surpass any effects I could ever get with a brush. They are richly layered and textured
Do you purposely create a relief by adding several layers to vary height of different areas?
I have not, but you certainly could!
@@ElizabethStHilaire thanks 😊
@@ElizabethStHilaire Thank you. I’m a retired teacher of the blind and visually impaired, so it is in my nature to think of tactile experiences.
@@bconsilio3764 I bet that would be very cool!
Hello, what kind of papers do you gel print onto?!
All different kinds, lots of rice paper. The specific rice paper I use is on my Amazon list, link is below video
@@ElizabethStHilaire Hi I’m impressed you responded as I’m not a patreon member! 🌹🙏 Plus I figured my question redundant as you probably have you tubes where you gel plate and mention papers! Obviously I just found channel. I like when new stuff shows up which I haven’t heard of yet! I DID look into your list of supplies, and seen the SUMI-E sketching paint paper. Rice paper I used to write letters on when snail mail was in before email. So I’ll check it out! That’s the great thing about collage. Is the paper. Found in magazines and old books. And how you coat your collage so it won’t yellow. Protecting all these papers! Thanks!
@@annatronson5927 my pleasure. I do not use any magazines though. Glad you found the other videos. Lots here. Patreon tutorials are more in depth with resources. :)
i would love to contribute but I refuse to use paypal after they stole 750.00 from me and closed my account permanently. is there any other options other than ONLY paypal???
Oh wow! I use PayPal. That’s scary!
Or join me on Patreon! I’m sorry to hear that Alexandria
Alexandria, the same thing happened to me. I refuse to use them too.
