@bluelavaart: My Process Apply Acrylic Paint: Squeeze a bit of acrylic paint onto the Gelli plate (Vegan synthetic polymer, not even gelatin) and use a brayer to create a smooth, thin layer. Place Your Image: Lay your laser-printed photograph face down on the painted plate, pressing gently to ensure solid contact. Transfer the Image: Rub the back of the photo with a brayer or your fingertips, applying even pressure to ensure a flawless transfer. Peel and Reveal: Carefully lift your photo to reveal the transferred image on the Gelli plate. Reverse Painting: Apply one or more layers of acrylic paint, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next. Transfer Layer: Evenly apply acrylic paint or gel medium to the plate with a brayer. Cover with Bristol Board paper, weigh it down with books, and let it dry for 20-30 minutes or longer if you used lots lof layers like me I let mine dry overnight. 📸✨ If you want to check out my supply recommendations, linked in the bio.
