Explore the Magic of Gelatin Plate Printing

Join GOLDEN Artist Alumni Ashley Gaboury for a hands-on workshop that dives into the vibrant world of gelatin plate monoprinting. Whether you're new to printmaking or looking to expand your creative toolkit, this session is a fun and approachable way to explore the process.

You'll learn the basics of working with a gel printing plate and GOLDEN OPEN Acrylics, experimenting with layering techniques, textures, and composition. We'll also explore the use of iridescent paints to add shimmering, eye-catching effects to your prints.

Ashley will share tips on incorporating collage and layered elements into your own artwork, helping you find your style along the way.
