Studio Visit #1: Gelatin Printing on Garbage Paper

I'm starting a new weekly series that I hope to continue throughout 2023: Studio Visits!  These are very short (2-5 minute) videos about something I'm working on in the studio.  They will be random, fun, mostly informative, and hopefully something you'll enjoy.  Without any further ado, here is the first one — it's all about gelatin printing on garbage paper.

PS: If you love the stencil in the video…

FracturedFlower-wm
…it's this month's SVG file for Maker & Super Learner Members.

Here's the print I liked the best:

Although I made a few that aren't in the video and this grungy one is super fun — in a totally different way!

1-GrungePrint-wm
And here's an unfinished collage where I used a section of a print made with this stencil:

It always takes me a little while to get to "know" my stencils and how best to use them.  I'm excited to do some more exploring!

Thanks for stopping by!
