Thank you for sharing this instructional video! I am currently trying to discover what printmaking techniques I can incorporate into my k-4 art curriculum. The way that who I have broken this down into the steps helped my to understand the process.
Thanks so much, Karen! I'm new at Gelli printing, and this was very enlightening. I tried to do a transfer, right out of the gate, from a printer image...why not just jump into the deep end! lol It didn't work at all...and then I realized it was in inkjet printer, not laser! Looking forward to trying both ways you've shown us! (I also have to secure a brayer!)
This was excellent, thank you. I will be trying the method that you use for transferring photos. I like the way the blacks are more intense, much more so than the standard method of photo transfering to a gel plate.
Hello! You mentioned Notanlzer, but I can't find Notanlive in the Google Play store. Maybe I'm spelling it wrong? Can you please tell me? Thanks. I love your video!
I loved you video and brilliant ideas. Thank you! I understand you perfectly, and the vogue image you used came out excellent. If anyone wants to see the original i scrolled back to 1:52 and it is seen there. I can't wait to try the technique with the mod podge. Well done!
Thank you for showing how to do the matte medium transfer. I am trying to do laser cut transfers and I am about to pull my hair out. I am used to carving linocuts and silkscreens so I am know what I am going to get. Most of the time I can't figure out when to let the layers dry or to pull it wet
Well, you shared some real interesting techniques for portraits. I intend to try. Thanks for sharing. I hope you answer my question about whether to dry the transfer pulls.
I totally enjoyed listening to your video, and i love your sense of humor. I couldn't quite follow the idea you mentioned about an APP called "noten"...something or another. By the way, have you ever tried transfers on fabric? I'm wanting to figure out how to do that... Thank you, Juliana
Hi, so for the delay in responding! The app is called Notanizer and is great for getting the contrasts you need to simplify a composition. I haven't tried transfers on fabric but I think it would work on smooth fabric. Cheers!
@@KarenElaine I want to try this ... I've been toying with an idea, while trying to get settled into my new living space. So, no problem in the Delay. I totally understand! I appreciate your teaching, who has time to learn??? hahaha when a Person's life can be so busy with SO many things happening at one time. I'm glad you replied, I almost forgot I put my Question out there!
I am new to this image transfer … haven’t been successful yet .. but will keep trying . Seems most magazines do not work well . Will buy a Vogue and try again !
I wish you would have shown the colors of the Vogue magazine picture before you transferred it. I am wondering what the picture looked like. Thank you!
love this question. was the image of yourself that you used medium on dried and rubbed off have to be a laser printed high contrast image? can that process be done with any lasr print ..color etc?
GELLI PRINTing is so Kool!! I just discovered it, (I'm a multi media kind of girl), and I'm obsessed!! Getting my daughter a GELLI PRINT kit for Xmas, she needs something to do that's not real fussy, and she wants to upcycle clothing and fabric.. ❤️
Thanks for making this video but why let the magazine print sit so long to dry twice? But background images you said hurry, don’t let it dry? Can you pull a magazine without adding paint on top of the image on the jelly plate?
I have heard some people having success with an ink jet printer, but I am not one of them. Give it a try, and let me know how it turns out. Thank you for your kindness!
I laughed out loud when she said “vogue works okay.” I asked my daughter to pick up magazines, even said, “like cosmo and vogue” and she brought me star and people. They don’t work so great 🤣🤣🤣
i thought when u put a layer and take it straight of the hole thing comes of when u did the second layer some came of both layers but left alot there to. i thought the hole lot always comes of
Thank you for the great tutorial. This was really informative. I'm curious, what's the copyright on mag prints? I don't want to venture there and get in trouble.
All printed images and text are subject to copyright but there are some "rules" when it comes to using them in creative works. I think you will find a lot of information if you google "copyrights for magazine images used in collage" or something similar. Enjoy!
Merci pour ce tutoriel partagé. Les explications sont claires, je débute mais jai compris le principe du monotype. Je vais tenter le transfert de photos. Belle suite à vous.
Hello, I did what you did but noticed that brushing Matt medium on the foto copy ink came on the brush, didn’t see that with you… any answers? Also wasn’t so nice and black as a result
@@KarenElaine sorry, one more. Will the image pick up any color? In other word, could I do 3 half-tone images and print them separately C, M, Y paints?
I can't get any kind of printer copy to work including laser Is there a time constraint on the paint drying? I've tried doing it immediately and waiting for the paint to get sticky
I've been that way since I was a little girl. My parents used to call me Edith (the character in Laugh In, who never finished her sentences) You can always turn off the sound or find another video if it drives you crazy. ☺Sorry, it's just who I am.
I had to stop watching this video because you are not showing certain steps for example the first magazine that you lay down you don't show us exactly what the magazine picture looks like we only see the back of the page. Unfortunately for tutorials since I'm just learning I have to see every step
No way u could end up with leaves and all that texture when all u pressed was words...no stamps or stencils. Did u send edited 2 videos into 1 leaving out steps and not giving clear look at results.
Hi Rhonda, this is a recording of a live Zoom class showing how to make image transfers with magazines and laser prints using a gel plate. It hasn't been edited and is in real-time. It's one continuous unedited video, nothing fancy but hopefully informative.
Very interesting. I think you are the only artist I've watched that loves the rubbing off method. Both prints came out really fine!
Wow! Super transfert image with black fluid paint! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing this instructional video! I am currently trying to discover what printmaking techniques I can incorporate into my k-4 art curriculum. The way that who I have broken this down into the steps helped my to understand the process.
You are a good teacher! Thanks for the step by step instructions and also each technique that has AND hasn’t worked for you.
Sometimes you let the transfer pull dry, and sometimes you don’t. Could you explain if it is important for the transfer image to dry, or not?
i am always glad to see your videos you are an amazing artist and teacher ,thank you i still remember doing origami with you on Carols show
Thank you so much 😀

I almost thought about buying a laser printer, the idea was so cool!!
Karen Elaine, you are an excellent and inspiring teacher! So glad I found you!
Nice work. Thank you for sharing. Loved the use of glue gun "stencils" - they are so easy to make and fun to use.
Where is the video of glue gun stencils please????
So fun! Thanks for the clear instructions....trying this today!
Hi. Great! Does it have to be a lazer printer? Thanks
Excellent demo tutorial - very clear and helpful for me, as a life long artist but a beginner at gelli prints or hand prints of any kind. 🩵💛🩵
Great to hear!
This was excellent, thank you. I will be trying the method that you use for transferring photos. I like the way the blacks are more intense, much more so than the standard method of photo transfering to a gel plate.

No replies?! How rude!
@@soniascraftsThats for me the same,i dont can't find the app in Playstore to. Hopely she can scribe it in the discryption ore here...?
It must just be on the apple app store. I see it on my iphone
Just subscribed!! Great videos, I now understand more about gelli play so now I'm going to purchase one !!! Thank you 💖

Karen, thank you, very good tutorial.
your picture is lovely.. love that 80's hair.
Brilliant! Thank you so much. Am going to try this today!
Hope you like it!

Glad it was helpful!
lovely, thank you! I'm gonna give it a try!
Very instructive for such an unpredictable process. Does the type of ink/paint you use matters? Thank you!
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you! Where did ou get the stencils/stamps that looked like open doilies?
Thank you for this tutorial!
Incredible instruction and you have me wanting to try this technique! I’m a new subscriber. Thank you for sharing your talents with us!
Thank you for the sub and kind comment!
Thanks! Helped me massively.
Glad it helped!
Love all your ideas and samples of different paper. How do you clean your gel plates? They are so clean!

Great demo and techniques, really enjoyed this. So helpful! Thanks.
Great work! How do you spell that app that you use to get the high contrast photos?
Amazing! Think you for sharing this!
Great demo, thank you. Are the laser prints b/w? Or were they set up to print cmyk on laser?
I had a monochrome laser printer at the time. I haven't tried the transfer technique with my color laser prints yet! 🙂
Love this but how do you frame it after when it on such thin paper?
love this question. was the image of yourself that you used medium on dried and rubbed off have to be a laser printed high contrast image? can that process be done with any lasr print ..color etc?
Ola,. Amo seu trabalho, tenho dúvidas, ... Usou gloss paper para transferir a imagem?
Thank you for the great video. What laser printer do you use?❤
I used an HP LaserJet Pro M14/17
@@KarenElaine thank you very much❣️🥰

I laughed out loud when she said “vogue works okay.”
I asked my daughter to pick up magazines, even said, “like cosmo and vogue” and she brought me star and people.
They don’t work so great 🤣🤣🤣
Could you do this onto fabric instead?
the rubbing with the fingers looks like half came of and just left the black blob.were the head go?
i thought when u put a layer and take it straight of the hole thing comes of when u did the second layer some came of both layers but left alot there to. i thought the hole lot always comes of
Great registration hack
Thank you! Did you say that the image for your last technique had to be laser?
I use fresh laser prints for the best results!
Really beautiful but i missed some parts
Thank you for the great tutorial. This was really informative.

Nice job
Thank you for sharing.
is there a list of your tools somewhere?
Awesome ❤
Great prints and tutorial, thank you. I'm curious, where did you get the round, flat brayer you were using?
It's called a baren, it's a printer tool. It looks like she's using a speedball baren.
Where did you get those stencils. Great video
Thank you Rita! Which stencils are you referring to? I usually get my stencils from the Crafters Workshop.
That second pull is called a ghost print
Hello, I did what you did but noticed that brushing Matt medium on the foto copy ink came on the brush, didn’t see that with you… any answers? Also wasn’t so nice and black as a result
It is a rather uncertain method. When you use too much water or scrub hard ...I prefere other methods. Look on You tube...
your photographic prints, are they ink jet or toner?
Hi Ritchie, they are toner prints. 🙂
@@KarenElaine sorry, one more. Will the image pick up any color? In other word, could I do 3 half-tone images and print them separately C, M, Y paints?
@@flossflink great question! I’m pretty sure the image will be up any color, so give your idea a go! Let me know how they turn out. Cheers!
Very nice! Thanks
How long do you let your images dry on the Gelli plate?
A few minutes or more seem to have the best results. It depends on the thickness of the paint and humidity. It's always an experiment!
140 lh cold press 100% cotton w.c. paper or a mixed media or 100 lb drawing or printing paper.
What is the round tool with the handle you are using to rub the ink around (not the brayer)?
It's called a baren and it's great for smoothing papers and burnishing. Yasutomo is the brand name.
@@KarenElaine thanks!!!
I am having a problem finding the high contrast apps that you mention in the App Store. Can you help me get those apps?
Hard time finding too. It’s NotanIzer $1:99
Do you have to use a laser printer? Regular copies from a copy store won’t work?
Laser printer copies will work while ink jet copies will not. Most copies from stores are laser prints. I hope this helps!
@@KarenElaine i haven't been successful with my laser prints at all yet, unfortunately. i want to use my own photos, not just magazines 😕
I can't get any kind of printer copy to work including laser
Is there a time constraint on the paint drying? I've tried doing it immediately and waiting for the paint to get sticky
Can somebody PLS help me with the correct name of the app mentioned ...something like 'no tan eyes' ..or somthing. Just can't find it.
She said Notaniser and Notan live
What's name of the software for the image???
How do you get the prints so dark…mine are so muted…😘
C'est de l encre acrylique ou gouache ???..joli Is gout.
This took forever
Where can I purchase a gel plate??
Amazone
can you please wright down the name of the app you use?
Notan or Notanizer. 😀
are you using acryllics?
Can u use an inkjet to transfer?
No. Only laser. And the copy must be very recently!!
This seems more experimental than teaching.
You made them flowers with a glue gun your amazing
Some are clear… but starting not clear , what the pages are and how the print takes places ..
I cannot find tha app either
Great content though
Thank you for the kind comment! The app is called Notanizer. I got it from the Apple app store. Notan Live is another one I use. Cheers!
What is the name of the photos app?
It's called Notanizer 🙂
Spent a fortune on laser printing. Cannot get one image transfer! I don't think this is even possible.
I like how you use watercolor paper , kind of agree , you don’t show all the steps .
I've tried so many times and I always end up with nothing on the plate........
I had the same problem until I ran the paper through the laser printer three times. You need plenty of toner on the image to make a decent transfer.
@@KarenElaine I have no laser printer, I use images from Vogue
I have the same issue.
Are you using paint or ink?
Hi, I am using acrylic paints.
the names of the applications please! can you write it? Thank you
Notanlzer $1.99
I use Notanizer and Notan Live. One is free and the other is $1.99. Great apps!
Can you spell the app please
It didnt work first time cos you fiddled about and it dried before putting paper on.
Long way around! Confusing with original idea of video!
Agree
👍👍👍💕💕💕🇩🇰
Oh gosh, show us the photo you are using
So confusing for a beginner … what are you doing? But thanks anyway.
Nice work but way too much confusing talking for me. The video would be much shorter and more clear without all the talking. Thanks anyway.
Thank you. I thought I was the only one who couldn’t stand the talking. Way too much
But, she’s explaining things when she talks. What’s confusing?
You don’t finish your sentences! It’s driving me crazy to try to follow the narrative.
I've been that way since I was a little girl. My parents used to call me Edith (the character in Laugh In, who never finished her sentences) You can always turn off the sound or find another video if it drives you crazy. ☺Sorry, it's just who I am.
I agree with Minna but I guess like your parents I find you quite unintentionally hilarious ! But your outcomes are great!
I had to stop watching this video because you are not showing certain steps for example the first magazine that you lay down you don't show us exactly what the magazine picture looks like we only see the back of the page. Unfortunately for tutorials since I'm just learning I have to see every step
Oh please I figured it out. Not that hard. I think it’s great beginner’s tutorial
Great video I'm new to this and I thought it was a good tutorial
I totally agree … not clear , what the pages and how the print takes places ..
We can all learn, and nobody is perfect ❤.... and I've seen a lot worse!
Agregar! Did you find another titorial that explains those steps? I'm looking for it.😊
No way u could end up with leaves and all that texture when all u pressed was words...no stamps or stencils. Did u send edited 2 videos into 1 leaving out steps and not giving clear look at results.
