  • I'll share with you 3 demonstrations of how to create image transfers using gelli printing.
    From my Skillshare class - 'Create Successful Image Transfers Using Gelli Printing'
    View Skillshare Class - skl.sh/3fw3ecv
    In this art class, we are going to focus entirely on creating successful image transfers using the gelli printing techniques. We will start with my favourite and easiest technique, using downloaded laser-printed images on pre-painted backgrounds. Then we will move on to using those same printed images, using a two colour mono-print. Finally, you will learn how to create successful image transfers using magazine pages.

    I wanted to make you aware of the following: I did a lot of testing with inkjet printers instead of laser print copies. I have a Canon Pixma inkjet printer which uses a combination of pigment and dye ink. There are two methods for reliable image transfers: 1. Use brochure paper. 2. A fantastic cheap method I came across lately: just use plain paper. Use a black and white image (color converted to gray scale) and print it with your printer with normal, color (yes color ! settings). Press it onto your plate without any medium. Spray the back with water. Let it sit for a while. The water on the back of the paper will dislodge the ink. Peel the paper off and you will have a perfect transferred image. It might not work with every printer, but with printers such as Canon that use a combination of inks it works flawlessly

      When you're ready to transfer the image to another paper, do you need to add paint over the image to get it to release from the gelli plate, or how does that work?

    FYI Using a Gelli Plate to make "transformative art" is legal and not subject to copyright. Andy Warhol's estate was sued and the case was thrown out due to "Transformative Art" falls under the First Amendment right to free speech as is an expression in the US at least..Andy Warhols famous prints of Cambell's Soup was not an imposter that the average person would not think the print was an actual advertisement from the Cambell's Soup company because of the crazy bright colors transforming the original image into art.

      I often want to use decoupage from napkins in my art and bought quite a few and then found out i cant use them if i want to sell my art work which was really irritating. Do you think that applies here too?

    • @denasewell
      @denasewell 2 місяці тому

      That is simply not true as using napkins to decoupage something is considered "Transformative" and not subject to copyright as someone who does upcycling I am very sure of te law with regards to copyright and selling my art.@@lyndseyanne4022

      Great Idea saving images on a USB stick, then taking that to a copy centre/shop. If you don't have a USB stick you can attach your images to an email & ph the copy centre/shop for their address to email it to them. Keep a note of the exact time you sent it, so when you're there they can trace it back & print it off.
      If possible support local independent copy/printing shops as they often have specialised machinery not often found in chain stores.
      Also they tend to have a bit more time to give detailed advice if you have more complicated copying needs.

      Hi there Diane, thank you for your compliments! Acrylic paint is polymer mixed with pigment, soap is used to bind the pigment, sometimes cheap paint won't have screened out the soap and the paint can become bubbly. So, first look at the paint you are using, then my next suggestion is to check your gel plate. I used make-up wipes once because I ran out of baby wipes, a bad move! The gel plate didn't like this! So maybe there is something on the surface of the plate that is causing the bubbles? I have experienced the bubbles with using magazine pages, so check your prints as well, what are you using? and also, the amount of paint! Too much paint will cause bubbles on the print. I hope one of these ideas helps you, let me know how you go! Cheers Froyle
