#monoprint

meestal heb ik het meest plezier als ik begin met een plan en me vervolgens laat afleiden door snippers en left-overs die ik in mijn ooghoek zie. Zoals vandaag.

Self-regulation through art. 10/10 recommend. Healing is in the process and not the result. #Monoprint #GelPlate

A reverse transfer gel print rendered in black and red of a geometric image inspired by the mid century aestheticA ghost gel plate reverse painted print of a Melbourne street scene from my photoA triple layer gel plate print of the Guggenheim before I pulled it. The background is in blue and red and the building is black and white - a reverse painted transfer print.

Using another gesture drawing as a #monoprint painting prompt.

I tucked it into a clear plastic sleeve and then popped the #gelliprint plate over it, and did a lines paint over.

Trying to use smaller lines and more saturation first, and when that dries, hit it with wider brushes and less saturated color.
In progress monoprint painting; with acrylic colors. A lot of orange and blue and yellow visible.In progress painting with broad palette knife strokes in green and yellow and purple.The painting smooshed to paper under a stack of books

The marks and color came out nice, but the cars are flattened by the photo graphics’ mid tones. Next time I might try drawing over with acrylic markers to do fine detail in the foreground.

The finished print framed in a glass sandwich style floater frame. The print is off register / not perfectly aligned in the center of the paper, and also at a slight angle.The first layer of the gelli print laser printer photo transfer in dark green. The gelli plate is on a cutting mat, itself taped to a workbench

It’s still drying but looks pretty promising.

It came out pretty good, I think.

I went back and touched up a couple of small peel flecks. No big tears tho.

The finished painting, inverted. Bright combos of colors, mostly orange-blue and yellow-purples with some bright pink spots. Good variation in marks and brush sizesThe original drawing under the gelli plate

Trying something new, a paint over from reference marker drawing.

I popped one in a sleeve, and worked small brush / most intense color to larger brushes and less intense color.

I think the cheapness of the backup paints (took my nice paints to work) might have made the first direct small lines and shapes less impactful.

A marker drawing I made in orange and brown of a seated nude female model, sitting on the platform, facing right. The printed image will be reversed. The drawing is in a plastic sleeve protector. On top of the drawing is the gelli plate. This is all on a workbench, on which sits a protective plastic cutting mat divided into inches. The cutting mat is blue taped to the bench top.Deep into painting. The smaller shapes are already dried and obscured by larger brush work in colors mixed down with white.Coming back with cool muted color as backfill, with large palette knife strokes. Using color compliments to help the top colors vibrate, if any shows through. A crap shoot, since I’m not lifting under the plate to look.Blocking out the gesture in the negative space with warm muted compliment color, and black behind the figure (relative to lighting)

Idk, I don’t see the hardness of the concrete of the skate park, nor the hard attack of the kendo leaping swordsman so I’m gonna call this a fail and reset.

Also since when does my gelli plate have organic surface blob defects? And how can I fix those?

#monoprint
#gelliprint
A completed, dried and flattened gelli print photo transfer that conveys curves, cracking, atmospheric directional color, and is in general abstract as hell. The opposite of what I was trying for.

Dark purple predominates. Brush marks and graphic tonality are present, as is peeling paint along the right edge.

Vertical format.

Back on the gelli plate with a pair of photos transfered and painted/erased.

One of the skate park photos looked so good I tried to combine it with a negative of a kendo jodan leap photo.

But I’m not sure if I ruined both the motion and the odd curve of the park.

I guess we’ll see when I peel once it’s dry. Might have to do a couple of this to get the right effect, or split the images back to individual ones

A workshop bench with a messy palette full of acrylic paints, and a cutting mat grid. The grid is taped to the workbench. On the grid is an image prepped to adhere to paper backing. White acrylic paint has combined with some other colors to complete the paint out of a photo transferThe gelli print plate with a stack of books providing pressure while the paint and paper dry.

Keeping myself busy with art today. This is called "47 sunflowers" oil pastel and acrylic monoprint on a 12x16 inch canvas

A bit of oil pastel and mono printing experimenting today. Oil pastel underneath for colours and black acrylic paint for the monoprinting using tinfoil
