Nothing like a good paper making session to get you going. I would like to drop in a secret here that I use for paper. One of the papers I use is scrapbooking paper which is archival and acid free. Does not matter whats printed on the front I use the back side. Look for single sided print paper many of the currently papers are printed on both sides. Dont go buying it at retail there is literal mountains of it out there at thrift stores, yard sales and on market place. Sharing the love. 😊
Susan - this is a genius idea! I have two pads of scrapbooking paper that I found at my local goodwill (I think I paid $1 a piece for them). I never even thought to use them for an archival base. I'm going to go dig them out today and start using them. Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰
I absolutely love the idea of using the Gel plate as a mixing palette and painting or rolling off onto papers from it! Your papers are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your process and enthusiasm!
You're welcome, Gayle - I'm so happy you're here 🥰
I will need to start binge watching your channel. Such great ideas
I hope you enjoy them all 😍🥰
I work in many mediums, and have focused lately on learning gel printing and paper making / painting. I have spent the past few days creating papers with fluid acrylics (as in mixed paint pouring colors), wet strength tissue paper and the use of my airbrush just for the air. I had a lot of fun doing that today. I appreciate your videos and have learned a lot especially in regards to the all of the various papers to use. Thank you!
How fun, Kimberly! I love the idea of using the airbrush that way - so inventive 🥰
Oh my! Jackie this session has re-lit a creative fire in my belly. Thank you for this magical, fun and joyful experience. You are such a beautiful soul and your creativity and play is contagious 💗🤗💗.
All the papers are pieces of art in their own way. My fav has to be the light blue with the paynes grey in particular the stunning two toned textured piece that was on the left at the end of the video. I was getting mermaid energy from that piece when you first pulled it and then when you created the gorgeous mermaid scales print 😍…… mermaid collage on the two toned textured blue piece please!?!
My creativity is waking up again after a few months of initial grief with the loss of my father and further life challenges. Watching your videos is both inspiring, fun and healing.
Thank you Jackie so much for being here and sharing your journey with us. 🙏🏻💗🤗😍😘🙏🏻🤗
Andrea, I am so sorry for your loss and life challenges. At the same time I am so happy that you can turn to art for it's healing properties - and I'm honored that this video had an effect on you. Grab your paints and some papers and start playing with the blue colors - they're speaking to yo now. Thank you so much for being here, my heart is with you. 🥰
I so understand your love for the roll off papers. Many times they appeal to me then the work one is trying to come up with. Love your videos so much. 😊
So true, Bonnie! Roll off paper is rapidly becoming one of my favorite papers to "paint." Thank you so much for being here 🥰
Jackie, once again you have created some brilliant and stunningly beautiful paper pieces in this video! And so many of them in one session! I love how you draw your audience in and allow us to feel so included in your process by saying "WE have made some beautiful papers....." instead of saying 'I have made some beautiful papers...." We are all living out our creative urges vicariously through you for an hour or so each time you post and share with us! So thanks for being so generous with your time and talents!! xoxoxo. Deanna
Deanna, this was a lovely message to wake up to. Thank you very much - it means so much to me. 🥰
The last print is my favorite!
I love how that last print turned out too! Thanks for watching Raelynn 🥰
✨💖✨ Even though I don't have a geli plate I enjoy watching you, and others, who demonstrate the process. Maybe I'll get one someday (when I have a space where I can use it) or not, but your excitement and playfulness inspires me to play more with my (mostly paper) mixed media collage for atc's and other small pieces. ☮
I love hearing this, Alice! I truly feel that playfulness when creating not only makes us happier, but makes art we fall in love with. 😍
Enjoyed today's video and especially loved the colours using magenta and the yellows then the touch of pale blue and then oh my the florist paper. Thanks Jackie
Thank you, Christie! I know, the floral paper put me over the moon 😍😍😍
Thankyou Jackie for a very interesting video. Lots of beautiful effects, you never know what can be achieved unless we givet it a go.❤❤❤
That is 100% correct, Andrea - and I'm going to quote you on it regularly 😄🥰
Thrilled to find your channel, Interested in monotypes. In depth but understandable☕️🌹
I'm so happy you're here, Diane! Thank you for watching. 🥰
What a lovely video. I didn't feel like doing much today and watching you create has been very relaxing. Thank you. Love so many of those prints - esp the roll off papers. I do love using my Gelli plate for mono prints and then making collages from them. You've inspired me to get out some old less than lovely ones from the storage box and add some more layers to them.
"Less than Lovely" papers - what a fabulous (and optimistic) way to look at your not-so-favorite papers! I'm glad I could be part of your day - I'm having a do-nothing kind of day myself. Thank you for watching, Mrs. Jones. 🥰
hi Jackie I‘enjoyed your video so much and I got a lit of inspirations for myself….thanks so much
That's wonderful to hear - and I'm so glad you're here! 🥰
I am so inspired!! Thank you so much❤
Thank you, Barbara - that's music to my ears! 🥰
Wish I could have watched this yesterday.... But Friday isn't a good day for my TH-cam wise 😅 just wanted to mention that when I use water on my gel plate I use a spray bottle and the little droplets just make magic!
Spray bottles are MAGIC! I'm sorry you couldn't join us live yesterday, but I'm happy you were able to watch today. Stay warm up there - I've been hearing about how cold it is by you this week! 🧊❄️🌨️
I just love this video! I didn't realize that copy paper was so durable. I use it but I will use it more now. The colors were so pretty! I love the colors you used today. Thanks for sharing your playful work. Beautiful !
Hi Catherine! I really do use it a lot because it can stand up to so much. Even soaking wet I can usually get it hold up. Thank, as always, for being here. 💜
Love geli pleite too
I loved your session today - you're such a talented artist and a natural teacher - I always find loads of inspiration and education in your videos!
What a lovely thing to say - thank you, Susan😍
Your enthusiasm adds to the finished product and proves that not every paper has got to be perfect 🤩 thx 🎉
Hello Jackie... I'm so very happy to have found you... I intend to watch all your videos because the more I watch the more I want more and more!!! Thank you for your generosity and for the time you spend answering every comment... a very rare thing other artists do!
My question for now is what surface is your gel plate on? Plastic or Plexiglass? TIA
Hi Céline! Thank you very much for saying such kind things. I'm so happy you're here, and I hope you enjoy every video you watch. You've got a very good eye. The gel plate is on plexiglass. I like it because it keeps the plate safe while I'm working with it and gives me leverage when pulling a particularly sticky print.
I loved this video you sounded so enthusiastic and happy it rubbed off on me making me feel the need to get my paints out, thank you
I hope you did get your paints out 😍 Thank you for watching, Sue!
Awesome!
Thank you, Maureen! 😍
Absolutely BEEauuutiful! 🙂 I love gel printing SO much and they are a spectacular addtion to my collage kits that I create for people. Thank you SO much!
I totally agree - gel printing can produce some of the most gorgeous papers! Thanks for being here Deborah 🥰
Hello from Denver! You have inspired me to take my art in new directions. Can’t wait to see what you have for us today!
Thank you for taking the time to join me today Norma - I am so happy that we've connected!
Love it! I have painting days, gelprinting days, and "just collage your scraps" days!
Yes, Angela! Similar climates, similar influences from nature, and creativity everywhere. Tomorrow's video should be endorphin overload if you like collage 🥰
first half of video with the yellow/orange paint painted on over the light blue !!! you discovered a newer different way of grunge texture making
You're right , Sue - and it was a blast to discover! I can hardly wait to try it again 😍
I need to just go for it and do this!
Yes you do, Dede - and I'm over here cheering you on 🎉🥰
SNAP! Even before you said adding Paynes Grey to the Powder Blue I spoke those very words Jackie lol 😁😄 I love love love Paynes Grey! It's gorgeous 😍
Right, Sandra?! It was like the paper was screaming "Payne's Gray to me! 🥰
@@PaintedPaperStudio absolutely! I have yet to try out my new gelli plate (my niece gifted me a smaller gelli plate for Christmas) I will though, I will! Feel the fear and do it anyway...looks like incredible fun!
Oh @@sandrafisherhayes3219, you are going to love it! And what a great niece!!!
Love😊
Thank you Bertim!
I love all the papers but always wonder what to do with them. How much collage art can u have. 😊. I really enjoy your channel as you give such great tutorials and you are so pleasant to listen too! Thank You!
Thank you, Donna I appreciate you being here 💜 I don't make nearly enough collage to use up all the papers (but it would be fun to try 😉). I use some of them as a base layer for large paintings. I sell some. I gift some. And some I use as very fancy grocery lists 😍 Finally, there are some that I may never use because I'm too crazy about them. 🥰
When you use a stencil, do you put it into some water so the acrylic paint won't stick? How do you clean the stencil? After watching these papers made on the gel plate, I had to order one and some papers for myself to "play" with. It's coming today!
Hi Margaret - I am literally filming a video today on this very topic! It will come out on Saturday 😍 In the mean time, you can put a stencil in a tray of water (with a drop or two of dish soap or Murphy's oil soap) to get the paint off. But I typically don't. The amount of paint that stays on a stencil in minimal and wiping down a stencil runs the risk of damaging the cut outs. Either way, just be very careful with the cut outs and your stencils will last for years with or without paint on them. Be sure to watch on Saturday 🥰
I Always enjoy your videos 🎉🎉🎉 do u sell your art? Would love to see some of your finished pieces in another video???
Thank you for asking, Andrea. I do sell my art, and the next release will be coming up in the spring. 🥰
The round tool w/ handle to. press out paint on the paper is not listed below.
I think I heard you say in one of your videos (can't find it again) that you use plastic file folders as a way to move the collage papers away from your work space to dry. Would you explain that again or tell me which video you talked about this. Thanks so ,uch. Just love your teaching videos. Are you on Skillshare?
Hi Judy! I am not sure what video it was in (I also can't remember why I enter a room sometimes 😂). But what I do is take a plastic sheet protector (the type you would put in a 3-ring binder) and put the wet paper on that to dry out. If the paper is larger, I just cut off the bottom edge and open the protector like a book. The reason I do this is that when the acrylic paint dries, I'll be able to remove the painted paper easily and without tearing. Does this help? I am not on Skillshare at this time, but I do have some workshops coming up. Thanks for being here, Judy!
Hi! I just found your channel. I’ve worked with a gel plate in the past. Love the freedom to create it gives. I do have question, How do you store all these papers? I have a small craft area that’s bursting with supplies. I have trouble organizing these print to use for future projects.
Thank you so much for watching, and taking the time to ask this question. Paper storage is almost always a challenge, especially when you have a gel plate and love to use it 😜. I did a video a few months back on some of the storage ideas that I use. Here is a link to it th-cam.com/video/ewMo_Jf64c4/w-d-xo.html I hope it gives you some new ideas. 🥰
Just getting back into my gelli! I have a large desire to use my prints as collage fodder on boards. Your colors are inspiring. I’m interested in knowing the different ways of creating different types of textures on my papers. How would you go about making different textures other than the ways you showed us in this video? I have done mark making & molding paste using it with stencils then attaching materials like cloth, fabric, threads, wood with pva.
Great question and great ideas, Trini! Varying textures can come out of the tools you use, the weight or viscosity of the paints, even the papers themselves. I will do an upcoming episode on different ways to create texture on papers. In the meantime, if you have any corrugated card board, get busy with it - you'll be happy you did 🥰
@@PaintedPaperStudio loads of corrugated cardboard. Thx. Looking forward to experimenting!
Jackie, do you clean your stencils with water after use? Or just let the paint build up on them? Thanks, Deborah from Toronto, Canada!
Deborah - it depends. If it a super-fussy stencil with a ton of cutouts I will (usually) wash them right away. At the very least I will spray them with a mix of Murphy's Oil Soap and water until I can wash them. If it's a sturdier stencil I usually do a light wipe down or reverse offload, and then let the paint dry. This should not be considered a best practice, but it's the truth 😂. Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Great video, Jackie. Some of those color combos . . . Thanks for bringing us along. BTW, what is the rice paper you use? I didn't see it in the list, but it might just be me. Thanks!
Hi Sue - I completely forgot to put the papers in the supply list (🥹) but they're all there now. Thank you for being here! 🥰
@@PaintedPaperStudio Thank you!
Hello Jackie. What is the solid clear surface your gelli plate is stuck on? Thanks.
Hi Libby! It's a piece of plexiglass that's just a little larger tan the plate. I use it for leverage when pulling the paper off the plate. 😃
Very inspiring! Can I have link for rice paper? Thanks so much!
Lisa - thank you! I can't believe I forgot to list the papers *smh*. Thank you for watching and letting me know -they're in the description now. 🥰
Did you give the information about the papers used?
Diane - I just now put the papers on the supply list - I can't believe I forgot them 🥹. Thank you for asking 🥰
Please let me know where to obtain the gel plate. Tell me about your journeling
Hi Judith! I get most of my gel plates on Amazon. If you look in the description of this video, you will links to them. 😀
Hi Jackie! Do you need a retardant mixed in with the acrylics? Is it necessary?
Hi Madeleine! I rarely use a retardant with my acrylics, but I work with my paints pretty quickly. If you like to take your time, or if your environment is particularly hot and dry you might what to use one. I have Golden's "Open" medium on my shelf, I just haven't used it much. Thanks for asking 🥰
How about Zoom classes or workshops!?
Hi Maureen! I am in the process of developing an online event that I have to be able to offer soon. Be on the lookout 👀 🥰
