Gelatin Printmaking
Saturday, March 5thÂ
11am – 3pm
This method of water-based printmaking is wonderfully simple and non-toxic. The
preparation and skills are learned in one day. Water based inks are rolled onto the
gelatin plate with a brayer then a variety of stencils and textural objects are incorporated
to make an image. You will be able to experiment and produce many prints in several
hours.
Look for examples of gelatin printmaking online.
