Wow, thank you to everyone who enjoyed my last reel that showed a simple paint lift technique with a kitchen spoung! I wasn't expecting so many responses and interest to the print.
This one uses the same technique but has different vibes. What do you see in this print?? 🌟
Sponge + paint lift on the gel plate
watching the light find its way through the dark is my favourite part.

Here it is again. Sorry the last one cut out! Fingers crossed this one works! Today, I tried something different 🧽
Printed with a sponge and once again... didn't clean my gel plate 😅

And look what was hiding underneath. The surprise is exactly why I love gel printing. You never quite know what's going to show up.

That's the magic ✨

I didn't go far for inspiration with these prints.
Just the garden. Just leaves.
And the way they leave their ghosts in paint 🍃

Gelli prints made from my own backyard.

Finished my collage on the weekend. Hidden stories in the leaves 🌿

Gelli prints, old book pages, and cut botanicals layered until something started to grow on its own. I love when the scraps start talking to each other.

That little bird showed up late and decided to stay.

Mixed media collage on paper.

Couldn't resist trying this one on the Gelli plate. Loved it's interesting shape 😍
Printed in all the little moments I could steal this weekend.

What did you do instead of housework? 😃
