Thanks again for all the positive responses to this demo. This is a very interesting process and it is possible to achieve excellent results. With most of the techniques I show I encourage people to take their time and slow down a little to practice the method, but with this one I would say just let go and get creative, don't worry too much about the end result and you will find you will become more confident, your work will improve and you will generate lots of new ideas that you could develop into more advanced compositions. Thanks for watching.
Love how you recycle and use everything. I grew up the same way, with older old-timey parents who saw the depression or lived in its aftermath mentality as well as WW2 I grew up without frivolous pleasures. I drew on the back of old supermarket cardboard signs they saved for me, my book reports were covered with painted cereal box cardboard instead of store bought covers or notebooks. My father made knives from saw blades, you name it. Every small home farm had treasure piles of stuff used to recycle and make other things. A wood pile, brick pile, metal pile, etc. Today it would be called hoarding, I guess, but it’s how things were done. My meat had a cows name on it in the freezer, and dented cans with no labels came from the dented can shop. Most of my clothes were hand me downs from cousins. I thought kids with new clothes were rich, but when my dad went to buy a new truck…he did it with cash as the salesman’s jaw dropped when this old farmer wrote a check that cleared LOL
Living by the coast I see everyday the amount of plastic and other rubbish that finds it's way onto our beaches, If I can encourage others to be less wasteful and maybe use rubbish in a more creative way I suppose that helps a little. I hope to show in future videos how you can make use of scrap metal for sculpture or how you can turn plastic bottles into imaginative pieces of art. Thanks for watching, I appreciate the support.
Thank you for not using a music soundtrack; I love the sound of tools hitting paper, paper hitting paper, tape being pulled, etc. BTW: The thumbnail shows all these little prints laid out equidistantly; did you wind up mounting them together?
I enjoy making this style of demo, I think they show my working process rather than an instructional demo that can sometimes be a little confusing, I always film in real time with no music and try to show the technique in detail rather than explain exactly what I am doing. The prints shown here are laid out this way just for the camera, although they are not framed I can imagine they would work as a group individually mounted and framed.
I loved the card like mono prints. They would look great if separately glued on white matting board and framed behind glass. Also, the almost childlike way of drawing- scribbling appeals a lot to me. Well done!
Wish I had seen this when I was still teaching. I did an art unit and Paul Klee was one of the artists in that unit. We did our Klee’s with melted crayons. I like your way better. Thanks for sharing
Thank you. I think you see in Paul Klee's work the joy of creating, and it has an almost childlike quality, I hope this demo encourages others to have a try. it is a very rewarding technique. Glad you enjoyed the demo.
I've just started my journey into printmaking with Gelli plates and stumbled across this video. This is wonderful! Thanks! What a fantastic idea. The fact that it's made with rubbish that would be thrown out any way is even more inspiring. I definitely plan to try this out.
So relaxing without music I am able to absorb so much more. You have inspired me to try what you do but in a reversed fashion.I have a tremor which makes it difficult to do any line work. however I love doing finger painting and can get lovely curves and lines and then add plan to do the traced line work that you demonstrate . Thank you so much Also so happy to see not only do you recycle but you find value in all the shapes and qualities of the things we throw away every day.❤
What a great use of objects! I ended up buying an accidental tube of M Graham oil paint amongst my watercolors. Now I know it was kismet just waiting for this tutorial to happen!
Wonderful, playful images. It is great how casual you are about drawing and then painting the colors around the shapes. The recycling aspect adds a lot. We all get so many cardboard boxes and it is hard to recycle some of them. Very enjoyable; Smiling as I watch you work.
These are beautiful! I really want to give this technique a try, I love Klee's work and love the idea of repurposing things that would usually be considered throwaways. Thank you for sharing this!!!
Thank you for the inspiration! This is a very mesmerizing tutorial and so pleasant to watch! Makes me want to pull out my paints. I also like that you are going for recycled materials 👍
Thanks Dan, my friend and I had a 'separate but together' across the world, session this morning. It was fantastic, we loved the effects, like lino cutting but better!
Glad you enjoyed it, I hope it inspires you and you achieve some great results. I like the sound of the long distance art class, creativity bringing people together is such a good thing to do and I'm pleased to have played a part. Thanks for watching.
Fantastic, almost whimsical pieces which you make look so ‘doable’. These have given me some ideas, that I’ve actually sketched out in my notebook so as not to forget (again ☺️). Thanks as always for the inspiration!
I think my aim for the demos is to encourage everyone to have a try, Paul Klee is a fantastic artist and you can see the joy of creation in his work. Glad you enjoyed the video, hope you get some good results.
Such a fantastic process, Dan! Thank you for sharing! Now I want to do a little Klee inspired workshop for my local arts & crafts society...they will love it!
Superb! So deeply inspirational. Thanks for getting me out of a creative funk recently. I am working with this technique and love it so much. Best wishes Frances van Velzen.
I love this and I am certainly going to try it. I have been experimenting with different ways to print but this is a bit different as it appears to allow more movement and freedom...thank you
love Klee! Love the video. Can’t wait to try it myself. 23 minutes in all I can see is a dog licking his paw . It just needs to be rotated once to the right.
Hi Dan! I’m new to your channel and I tried this technique yesterday. It was fun! Messy, but fun! And still not dry! Lol! Will demo it on my channel now, giving you credit of course! Thanks for the inspiration!
Inspiring as always. Your use of recycled items definitely has an impact on me! Love Paul Klee, such a great artist to honor, then again so are you. Thanks Dan -c
Just got to take my hat off you and salute from on eartist / print maker to another..I.kind of specialise in low tech art techniques to teach adults ( learning disabilities/ mental health & seniors) getting people to explore their artistic side with the lowest to social outlay using .packaging materials, even cutting up and washing tomato puree tubes which are made from lovely pliable sheet of copper & beautiful to inscribe with an old girl pen & turn into a mini printing plate..lol..I have MS & collapsed at home last mid August & caught Covid 19 end of Sept 2022 & 7 months late r am DTILL in hospital & hilariously have managed to produce mono / lino.prints & even some felt making from my hospital bed..I.even used PPE ( disposable nurses apron) stretched over a piece of old cardboard and turned it into a fake geli.printing plate..mlol..I' he had some weird looks off the doctors only patient to be cooking their own vegan katsu curries rather than eat NHS beige food & doing art ..better than lying in A bed moaning bored & eating.lol.Anyway I greatly enjoyed your video & have subscribed x
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to know that the demos have inspired you, I try to show that anything is possible (without much expense) a little imagination and willingness to try something new can spark amazing results and could lead to all sorts of possibilities. I can't imagine what you are going through but art has very positive effects on wellbeing and I'm sure creativity helps you. I wish you well with your recovery and thanks for subscribing.
You can allow it to dry but will also get some interesting effects if you apply the watercolour while the oil paint is still wet, it will create smudges and less of a sharp line (if you want this)
I found you by accident but thank goodness I did! This is amazing, I cant wait to recreate this process I love mono print art! I wished Id seen this before I recycled my cracker box!! Can I ask what Ink you used for this process? Many thanks I bet you have been asked this a million times!!
This demo uses oil paint as the print medium but you could also try this with block printing ink, acrylic can also work but it needs to be done with care as the drying time is much faster. Oil sticks (not pastels) can also bring excellent results.
I love this and I would definitely try it but nowhere that I've found have you put which paint you're using . I've seen oil paint and ink mentioned in the comments I thought the black might be acrylic and the color watercolor but it doesn't bleed and blend like wet watercolors so I'm assuming it's diluted something.......the recycled stuff well that I've done my whole life but what kind of paint do I need please 🥺
The black paint is oil applied very thinly to the plastic transfer sheet. The colour wash can be acrylic with water, water colour paint or ink. The oil acts as a resit but you can achieve interesting blurred lines and texture effects. Hope this helps.
Dan, wieder einrollest Video. Leider kommen Deine Videos nicht automatisch zu mir. Ich muss sie immer anfordern im Netz🤝🙏🏻🎨 Danke, für Deine schönen Einfälle und Kunstbilder 🌻
Danke, schön zu wissen, dass dir das Video gefallen hat. Es tut mir leid zu hören, dass Sie nicht über ein neues Video informiert wurden. Ich versuche, alle neuen Videos um 16 Uhr zu planen und werde versuchen, an denselben Tagen zu veröffentlichen. Dies könnte helfen.
What kind of paper do you use and can you oil bars on a plastic recycle sheet too?what is the estimate or maybe a apporiate drying time of a finished product that just a few questions i know it depends on where your countryis and verus humidty is, but what is your avg where you live?, my weather is a bit like your country...thank you im just learning about this art media it seems interesting but id like a over all understanding before i i buy anymore art supplies that i might feel to precious to use and create with due to price shock of art supplies...thank you mikelle art mom 🎨✍👩🎨

Okay
I love the quiet.Enjoy watching your process.
With drawing 2, what did you use for colour? Are those watercolours?
Que pintura usa?
Excellent technique sublimely simple but effective. One ☝️ question what paint are u using as it’s not explained in the vid ❤️

Many cultures didn’t waste things... hmmmm

I would be very interested in seeing how you create things from metal and plastic.
Es fantástica esta técnica. Gracias por compartir
Really like the quietness and the volume of info. Well presented many thks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love watching soundlessly too !

I recently discovered Paul Klee and am enjoying your channel immensely! ❤
Good to know, thanks for watching.
That's great. Keep our meeting! 👍268
Watch the video to the end.
See you more often in 22 years!
happy New Year!
Thank you! You too!
This is so relaxing and inspiring to watch. And so nice to have no music to distract from the learning experience - so enjoyable. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You inspire me to create, smile, live and feel joy. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Nice work ,thanks for sharing 🙏 always learnig
Thank you.
The energy of your creating is very inspiring. This is a wonderful demo of possibilities. Thank you so much.
I loved the card like mono prints. They would look great if separately glued on white matting board and framed behind glass. Also, the almost childlike way of drawing- scribbling appeals a lot to me. Well done!
I think the child like nature of Klees work has lots of appeal, inspiring others to have a go. This is a great technique to explore.
I’m smiling with delight watching this!

I was desiring a fresh approach to printing, thanks. I bought you a coffee in appreciation!
Awesome, thank you!
Super thank you !

Well done with very little: bravo! I feel less lonely thank you. Nyna
I love the smudginess of the ink combined with the bright colors.
Thank you
What a great use of objects! I ended up buying an accidental tube of M Graham oil paint amongst my watercolors. Now I know it was kismet just waiting for this tutorial to happen!
It s a great process to try, hope you get some good results.
Pure poetry 🤍
Thank you so much. I must play with this form of acrylic painting.
So glad to see one of your exhibitions in my feed today. Love it!
Thank you so much!
Very nice art.
you rock ! you don't need one of those expensive Gelli print makers .- love this method Thanks
Thank you
Quel plaisir de retrouver vos démos 😀

I love that you take such basic things and make something so wonderful.
I always like to recycle things when I can, and show that expensive equipment is not always needed.
Your creativity and ingenuity are so inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Bellissimo video! Grazie Dan!

Hi Dan! I’m new to your channel and I tried this technique yesterday. It was fun! Messy, but fun! And still not dry! Lol! Will demo it on my channel now, giving you credit of course! Thanks for the inspiration!
Making a mess is the best part. Don't be too impatient for these to dry, it can take a couple of days.
Inspiring as always. Your use of recycled items definitely has an impact on me! Love Paul Klee, such a great artist to honor, then again so are you. Thanks Dan

Those are beautiful--and inspiring. Happy New Year!
Thank you! You too!
With each transfer process the image becomes looser. These look fantastic !
THANKS!!
You're welcome!
Sooo coool!!!!
nice
Thanks Dan for a super tutorial! Does the oil need drying time before applying acrylic or watercolor?
You can allow it to dry but will also get some interesting effects if you apply the watercolour while the oil paint is still wet, it will create smudges and less of a sharp line (if you want this)
Simple and effective. Great work. How long did it take for the black oil paint to dry?
Thank you, this paint dries very fast, leave 24 hours
Makes me wonder why Klee didn't leave an inventory of a 1,000,000 pieces of artwork. I have to try this...maybe make next year's holiday cards,
It is an addictive process but it can be really satisfying when it works.
Uber-clever!
Lovely video
Don't know how you manage not to get clarted in ink, like me :)
I like using watercolor on the image :)
Thanks so much! 😊 I have to constantly stop filming to clean my hands, so its just the same for me.
@@DanTirels it's even more work for you, so thank you for sharing your time and expertise with everyone. I appreciate it ☺️

Yes, absolutely, it is worth experimenting, use plenty of water for a better effect.

You do not need to use a lot of paint for this technique so they will dry very fast, most within 24 hours.
hi with the paint do you wait till it dries abit beofre you turn it over and start the imprinting
No but try not to apply too much, you can try printing on some scrap paper first.
@@DanTirels thank you for the response..I really love what you do
