- Who knew rubber bands make great shapes on a Gelli Plate! I experimented and loved the results. Give it a try. This was so successful I plan on trying larger rubber bands in the future. Also try these in combination with stamps or stencils. I think the possibilities are endless. I used the following colors in this video: Oxide Black, Permanent Blue Violet, Apple Tart Green, Alizarin Crimson Hue, Liquitex Phthalo Blue and Fluorescent Blue, Titanium White.

Your creativity and curiosity are absolutely inspirational. Thank you for sharing it! So grateful.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.
You amaze me. I purchased a gelli press over a year ago to print my own fabrics and was afraid of messing up. Tried several pieces today and WOW! I surprised myself. This is definitely an addiction. I’m going to have to limit myself to trying different combinations. Thank you so much for your videos and creativity.
It’s is very addictive. Lol. But enjoy.
So the one you “ruined”…I love it!
Very interesting techniques. I’m ready to start printing, thank you for the inspiration ❤
I'm happy to be of inspiration.
Hello Susan I‘m enjoyig your video so very much and I could to watch it hours to hours, but I ‚m loving to create background/collages papers myself, hours to hours too.
Have fun with create papers, collages and so on…..We need this in our difficult time in this world……keep calm and crete, keep care for yourself and your family and keep health. I glade to more videos from you
The same to you. I'm very happy to bring inspiration and joy during these times. 😎
I happened to like the black/pink print that you thought you ‘ruined’! I think the beauty of each piece is individually met. Love your colors!
Sometimes I need to sleep on it to see if I like it. Thanks for watching.
@@SusanCliftonArtist Will certainly try the band process soon. Your ideas are marvelous
You are a great teacher!! I hope you know your time and generosity are appreciated!!
Thanks for letting me know. Everyone has been so wonderful. I also really appreciate that people are watching. I didn't know I could teach until I started doing this channel. We live and continue to learn.
I enjoyed so much with this video. I loved the red and purple mix. I'll make some gelli prints with rubber bands 😊 Thanks for share those tips ❤
Thanks for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I loved this. I wish I had rubber bands. I will start going through drawers.
LOL you never know what you will find.
I love this technique and can’t wait to try it. My favorite was the blue and green with the black rubber band effect.
Incredible your are very good and full idea.I love it original with rubber(élastic) So your are real🥰 good job, congratulation👏
Thank you so much 🤗 I was very pleased with this. You just never know.
Lovely 😀
Thank you! 😊
@susanclifton the craft paint is from Michael's.
Joann fabric,walmart,Popshelf and target all carry a form of fluid acrylic paint.
The inexpensive brand that is good is from Jerry's artorama the soho brand,I put it up there with amsterdam,liquitex the pigment load and texture are great.
No brand can touch Golden of course bit for the experimenting with gelli its fun to just explore.
Yes, I did remember later that was were I got it. I did put a link to the paint in the description. I find that not all colors work smoothly with the craft paint. I wish I could buy Amsterdam in the stores. Thanks for your contribution to the discussion.
@SusanCliftonArtist I went online and saw that you can get Amsterdam at michaels and hobby lobby in regular size and rhw minis, I always check the location to make sure they do carry it-I just like your content and your videos. Thank you for posting them♥︎
I love it!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks for watching! It makes me happy that you are inspired.
You are adorable, and appreciate your warm mellow voice , (too many Y/T narrators are hyper) Your style is right up my street, really enjoying your videos, thankyou 💗
Thank you so much. I guess I'm naturally calm. 😀
EXCELLENT!! I LOVE PINK AND GREEN!! Thank you!!
That color combo reminds of Lily Pulitzer clothes. So Palm Beach! Thanks for watching.
Fabulous. And who doesn't love circles! ❤
Absolutely. I like the natural unevenness of the circles.
@susanclifton I’ve discovered you and Jesse Itzler on the same day! This inspired me so much to get my gelli plate out and start experimenting again. Thank you!
I love Jesse Itzler. So inspiring, right? Definitely experiment, You never now where it will lead. Enjoy!
Reminds me of a microscopic slide in the lab.
That's interesting.
What fun! Lots of inspiration
Thanks for watching.
Wonderful design painting🎨🎨🎨
Thanks for watching.
Very cool, love this.
Rubberbands are my favorite
What a fab result!
Thanks
I really like the pink one
Thanks. 😎
AWESOME block prints.
Glad you like them! This was unexpected. I'm very happy with the results.
These are MARVELOUS!!! A friend posted some shirts that had been printed on, after construction, that made me want to print on some of my own shirts, and I think I’m going to try this technique to do it! Thanks!!!
Sounds great!
Fun video...thanks!
Thanks for watching.
Clever! Thank you for sharing!!!
Thank for watching
Thank you so much Susan I really really enjoyed watching you create all those amazing and beautiful print’s. I’d have never thought that elastic bands that have lost their elasticity would be so useful?!!!!!! Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
WOW, every one of these are fantastic. Love it! 😍
Rubber bands are the best. 😎
Love your channel.
Fun video.
Good tip about that cheaper paint than golden 12:30 (Amsterdam? I heard that once elsewhere recently. Gonna try it!)
14:04 was a beautiful pull. I loved how the design looks almost like a mask. ❤⭐️
And the review of all designs showed so many nice ones! 19:02
*Only note is pls to turn up your mic video volume so we dont nerd to turn up high to hear as commercials and following videos blast the ears. 😔
Thanks for the note. I have to watch this one on the TV to see how it sounds. On my computer everything sounds fine. And thanks for watching.
Thanks! I enjoyed watching you play and experiment.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love how these turned out!
It was a nice surprise to see what I could do with rubber bands. I have to make more. I lost these prints in the studio move. I was very upset.
I just loved watching this, looks like so much fun, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! It is a lot of fun.
Craft Smart is Michael's brand of craft paint :)
Yes, I couldn't remember where I got it. I'm not big on craft paint. I think I purchased it to do pouring art with my Goddaughter.
This was amazing, never thought of using rubber bands! I adore FolkArt Citron Green, one of my favs. Also fun to use is dental floss, and being waxed you can use if over and over, lots of fun. Really enjoyed your video and all the diff combinations. Can't wait to see your new studio!
I like the dental floss idea. I'll have to try that. I'm mostly moved into the studio. Still a few more things. I may post a quick video that shows how it is set up so far. It will be a few weeks before it's finished.
Love this technique ! I will give it a try, along with the dental floss that someone else mentioned.
Another fun video, I like the green too! Hope your move to your new place goes smoothly.
Thanks so much! Today we move most of the furniture. So much work!
Now I have use for my bag of rubber bands that I’ll never use otherwise😅
That's exactly why my rubber band ball was dried up. I wonder why we don't use them anymore?
Love this with the rubber bands! Really like that apple green color💚
What a fabulous video. Really loved what you achieved. Lots of inspiration ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
Another great "out of the box" tutorial. Your expertise is making my art so much better and it is so much fun! Thanks again.
You are so welcome!
What a great idea! Thank you for sharing. I will be trying this technique.
I hope you enjoy it. I thought it was fun.
I found this so much fun! Can’t wait to try it. Thank you!
You are so welcome! I think I need to start a Facebook page so you could share images if you do try it. I see now why other TH-camrs do that. Thanks for watching.
So fun! Will definitely try this!
It was a lot of fun. Let me know if you try it.
I'm thinking a pack of different size rubber band would be fun too!
Great idea.
Hello, I love what you do. Could you please tell me what kind of delli paper you use and where ? Thanks
I use this one from amazon. amzn.to/498i17b I like it because it isn't folded so there is no crease.
I really love you art instructional videos!
I’m new to the gel plate printing and one thing that I really wish you and other artist would do is put a solid background behind the gel plate.
The background grid is too busy with its hard lines and is distracting to the eye and takes away from your instruction.
Otherwise I just love your work!
You are a great teacher and you have such a soothing voice!
Keep creating these videos for us!
❤😊
I feel that way as well and have tried to find a surface that I can add to my table that works well with acrylics. The ranger mats are nice but too small and I don't like the brownish color. I might try adding contact paper to my counter. Thanks for watching and I love the feedback. Still working hard to improve the videos. It's a never ending process. But I'm loving it.
It is absolutely lovely! Incredible work, can't wait to try it!
You will love it. 😎
Do you have a video or can you make a video recommending what types of paints to use for different gell techniques? Hope that makes sense.
It's in the works. Thanks for the suggestion.
Could you show us how you use your prints please?
I have a few collage videos already that show how I use my prints. This one shows what I did with some of the prints from this video. th-cam.com/video/a2zhYn9PojQ/w-d-xo.html. Thanks for watching.
Thanks. This was fun to watch. May I ask if there's a brand of deli paper you recommend for gelli printing?
I'll have to get back to you on that. I don't recommend the one I used in this video. It's not very transparent for collage. But once I find one that I glad I will share it.
Hi Susan, what brand and size deli paper do you use?
I just got one from Amazon. 9x13 inches. amzn.to/46DmKff. I'm happy with this one. I haven't tried any "brands".
Is deli paper, wax paper?
They are different. Although deli paper can have a wax coating. It's just not as waxy.
Can you say what brand is that apple tart green??
Nothing comes up in Amazon..
Please and thanks..
Craft Smart is the brand. I got it at Michaels. The link is in the description. It's part of a set. But Michaels has them individually.
What is the paper you use to pull off the paint ? Did you call it deli paper ?
I got some cheap deli paper on Amazon. It isn't good for using in collage if you want the background to be absolutely transparent but it's still usable. There are better ones but I haven't found one I like yet. This cheap one is fine for doing pulls like I did to get the paint off the plate to leave a ghost. And for cleaning paint off the plate.
@@SusanCliftonArtist Hmmm, Not sure what we would call it here in the states …. what we would call deli paper isn’t clear like that …. It brown on one side and coated on the other
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🎨
😎 Thanks
I just recently threw out a whole bunch of old rubber bands! Who knew?? Now I will have to figure out how to make new rubber bands look old.🤣
Try the new ones. How different can it be?
Set them out in the sun for a few days!
😘💋
Ma a cosa servono ??
😎
but this isn't art; its craft.
making paper for art is very common in the art world. I know many artist that make collage papers this way.
