- Hey there! Following on from our Trace Monotype session, now let's dive into Reductive (or Subtractive) Monotype printmaking. This is when you take ink away from the plate before you print and can be hugely expressive and satisfying to do.

I liked the video; no issues with the music for me! Great ideas and demonstration with basic supplies.
That’s super to hear - thanks so much!
That’s really cool. On my printing learning path so this quick video was brilliant. Thank you.
I’m so happy it was helpful! It’s a fun path to be on - happy printing!
@@GemmaThePen Thank you 😊
I just found your channel. I love reduction printing. Thanks for reminding me! I'm looking forward to more of your videos!
It’s lovely to have you here! I love it too, it’s a bit magical, teasing images out of the ink 😍 There will definitely be more printmaking videos coming in the future! 💛
That was so helpful. Thank you 💕
That’s wonderful to hear! Thanks so much for watching 💛
Beautiful
That’s so cool!
Yay, Thankyou! It’s a very fun process 🥰💛
This is easy and beautiful
Thank you for watching, Raji! I’m so happy you enjoyed it 💛
This is a great idea ..I use a Gel Plate but did notknow you could get these effects without one ... Thankyou your prints are amazing ..
Thanks so much! It’s such a satisfying process, I love that there are so many ways to create with it 🙂 I haven’t tried a gel plate before but I’d really like to!💛
@@GemmaThePen A gel plate became very addictive to me because you never know what your going to end up with a lot of times.. but it's very relaxing just letting go with colours and shapes 😁but your work is wonderful so thanks again and I shall be using your great tips on it 💗
Ooh the surprises are one of the best bits about printmaking, so good! I definitely need to have a go at a gel plate soon, it sounds really great. And I love when a process is relaxing too, definite win-win 👏 thanks so much! 💛
Thank you ! I also found the music too loud for my tastes, and distracting, but I did enjoy your video (and learned from it !)
Good to know! Thanks for sharing, I’ll certainly be bearing this in mind for future videos. I’m glad you were still able to get something from it though! 🙂
Excellent video thanks
I’m happy it was helpful! Thanks for being here 💛
there is only one R in drawing. Nice job with everything else though.😊
Can you use acrylic paint?
As acrylic is so fast-drying it can be a bit tricky, but if you can mix in a good dollop of retarder/extender medium then there are possibilities. It’s very much trial and error to get the right consistency, but experimenting can be fun! Keep in mind, if the paint design dries on the surface then it won’t transfer to paper and may be a pain to clean off too. That’s why I stick to block printing ink as I don’t have to worry about the drying time so much ☺️
I recommend no music... its too moody, while trying to learn.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, I am still figuring out what works and what doesn’t, so I appreciate your point 👍
