Introduction to experimental and creative Gelliplate Printmaking

Explore the fun of using a Gelliplate to create your own fabrics using textile medium and dyes. Gelliplate monoprinting is a fun, experimental and intriguing way to create unique, textural and colourful patterns and art. Use everyday items (e.g. string) and natural objects (e.g. leaves) to create textured prints. You will experiment with using stencils, layering your prints and creating your own pattern blocks to use with the Gelliplate.
The course will be experimental and fun, with help and advice given to enable you to get the most out of the day. Fabrics can be fixed and are then ready for your own quilting, sewing, art or embroidery.

Basic materials, tools, ink and paper will be provided. Additional materials may be available to buy from the tutor or the art shop next door. We limit our course numbers to 6 - in order for you to get the most from our tutors and the facilities.
