Gelli Arts plates 5 x7 and 6 x 6
High contrast magazine images
High contrast laser print images (photocopier)
Fluid acrylic paints
Golden Fluid matte medium

Karen Elaine, you are an excellent and inspiring teacher! So glad I found you!
You are a good teacher! Thanks for the step by step instructions and also each technique that has AND hasn’t worked for you.
Very interesting. I think you are the only artist I've watched that loves the rubbing off method. Both prints came out really fine!
Great demo and techniques, really enjoyed this. So helpful! Thanks.
Great tutorial! Love your gelli prints!
So fun! Thanks for the clear instructions....trying this today!
Love it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Wow! Super transfert image with black fluid paint! Thank you so much for sharing!
I watched that part many times but dont understand how a magazine picture can be transfered with black paint.
This was excellent, thank you. I will be trying the method that you use for transferring photos. I like the way the blacks are more intense, much more so than the standard method of photo transfering to a gel plate.
Love this!! 💕Getting off Tax prep season since January- ready for some Print making!!
Love this and thank you for this video!
Nice work. Thank you for sharing. Loved the use of glue gun "stencils" - they are so easy to make and fun to use.
Where is the video of glue gun stencils please????
Amazing! Think you for sharing this!
Thank you for this tutorial!
your picture is lovely.. love that 80's hair.
lovely, thank you! I'm gonna give it a try!
I loved you video and brilliant ideas. Thank you! I understand you perfectly, and the vogue image you used came out excellent. If anyone wants to see the original i scrolled back to 1:52 and it is seen there. I can't wait to try the technique with the mod podge. Well done!
Brilliant! Thank you so much. Am going to try this today!
Hope you like it!
Incredible instruction and you have me wanting to try this technique! I’m a new subscriber. Thank you for sharing your talents with us!
Thank you for the sub and kind comment!
Karen, thank you, very good tutorial.
Well, you shared some real interesting techniques for portraits. I intend to try. Thanks for sharing. I hope you answer my question about whether to dry the transfer pulls.
Thanks so much, Karen! I'm new at Gelli printing, and this was very enlightening. I tried to do a transfer, right out of the gate, from a printer image...why not just jump into the deep end! lol It didn't work at all...and then I realized it was in inkjet printer, not laser! Looking forward to trying both ways you've shown us! (I also have to secure a brayer!)
I almost thought about buying a laser printer, the idea was so cool!!
Thanks! Helped me massively.
Glad it helped!
i am always glad to see your videos you are an amazing artist and teacher ,thank you i still remember doing origami with you on Carols show
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome ❤
Very nice! Thanks
Love all your ideas and samples of different paper. How do you clean your gel plates? They are so clean!
Thank you for sharing.
Hello! You mentioned Notanlzer, but I can't find Notanlive in the Google Play store. Maybe I'm spelling it wrong? Can you please tell me? Thanks. I love your video!
Sometimes you let the transfer pull dry, and sometimes you don’t. Could you explain if it is important for the transfer image to dry, or not?
Nice job
GELLI PRINTing is so Kool!! I just discovered it, (I'm a multi media kind of girl), and I'm obsessed!! Getting my daughter a GELLI PRINT kit for Xmas, she needs something to do that's not real fussy, and she wants to upcycle clothing and fabric.. ❤️
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you! Where did ou get the stencils/stamps that looked like open doilies?
Hi. Great! Does it have to be a lazer printer? Thanks
I am new to this image transfer … haven’t been successful yet .. but will keep trying . Seems most magazines do not work well . Will buy a Vogue and try again !
Very instructive for such an unpredictable process. Does the type of ink/paint you use matters? Thank you!
love this question. was the image of yourself that you used medium on dried and rubbed off have to be a laser printed high contrast image? can that process be done with any lasr print ..color etc?
Ola,. Amo seu trabalho, tenho dúvidas, ... Usou gloss paper para transferir a imagem?
Love this but how do you frame it after when it on such thin paper?
140 lh cold press 100% cotton w.c. paper or a mixed media or 100 lb drawing or printing paper.
Thank you for showing how to do the matte medium transfer. I am trying to do laser cut transfers and I am about to pull my hair out. I am used to carving linocuts and silkscreens so I am know what I am going to get. Most of the time I can't figure out when to let the layers dry or to pull it wet
Glad it was helpful!
I laughed out loud when she said “vogue works okay.”
I asked my daughter to pick up magazines, even said, “like cosmo and vogue” and she brought me star and people.
They don’t work so great 🤣🤣🤣
Great registration hack
Great work! How do you spell that app that you use to get the high contrast photos?
I totally enjoyed listening to your video, and i love your sense of humor. I couldn't quite follow the idea you mentioned about an APP called "noten"...something or another. By the way, have you ever tried transfers on fabric? I'm wanting to figure out how to do that... Thank you, Juliana
Hi, so for the delay in responding! The app is called Notanizer and is great for getting the contrasts you need to simplify a composition. I haven't tried transfers on fabric but I think it would work on smooth fabric. Cheers!
@@KarenElaine I want to try this ... I've been toying with an idea, while trying to get settled into my new living space.
So, no problem in the Delay. I totally understand! I appreciate your teaching, who has time to learn??? hahaha when a Person's life can be so busy with SO many things happening at one time.
I'm glad you replied, I almost forgot I put my Question out there!
That second pull is called a ghost print
Great prints and tutorial, thank you. I'm curious, where did you get the round, flat brayer you were using?
It's called a baren, it's a printer tool. It looks like she's using a speedball baren.
This took forever
Nice video thank you very much ❤️👍 don’t you think I can use a traditional inck printer ?? Love from Denmark 🇩🇰 Tina
I have heard some people having success with an ink jet printer, but I am not one of them. Give it a try, and let me know how it turns out. Thank you for your kindness!
Great demo, thank you. Are the laser prints b/w? Or were they set up to print cmyk on laser?
I had a monochrome laser printer at the time. I haven't tried the transfer technique with my color laser prints yet! 🙂
Thanks for making this video but why let the magazine print sit so long to dry twice? But background images you said hurry, don’t let it dry? Can you pull a magazine without adding paint on top of the image on the jelly plate?
Could you do this onto fabric instead?
Thank you for the great tutorial. This was really informative.
I'm curious, what's the copyright on mag prints? I don't want to venture there and get in trouble.
All printed images and text are subject to copyright but there are some "rules" when it comes to using them in creative works. I think you will find a lot of information if you google "copyrights for magazine images used in collage" or something similar. Enjoy!
i thought when u put a layer and take it straight of the hole thing comes of when u did the second layer some came of both layers but left alot there to. i thought the hole lot always comes of
Thank you for the great video. What laser printer do you use?❤
I used an HP LaserJet Pro M14/17
@@KarenElaine thank you very much❣️🥰
the rubbing with the fingers looks like half came of and just left the black blob.were the head go?
Merci pour ce tutoriel partagé.
Les explications sont claires, je débute mais jai compris le principe du monotype.
Je vais tenter le transfert de photos.
Belle suite à vous.
Where did you get those stencils. Great video
Thank you Rita! Which stencils are you referring to? I usually get my stencils from the Crafters Workshop.
Thank you! Did you say that the image for your last technique had to be laser?
I use fresh laser prints for the best results!
Hello, I did what you did but noticed that brushing Matt medium on the foto copy ink came on the brush, didn’t see that with you… any answers? Also wasn’t so nice and black as a result
It is a rather uncertain method. When you use too much water or scrub hard ...I prefere other methods. Look on You tube...
This seems more experimental than teaching.
How long do you let your images dry on the Gelli plate?
A few minutes or more seem to have the best results. It depends on the thickness of the paint and humidity. It's always an experiment!
How do you get the prints so dark…mine are so muted…😘
What is the round tool with the handle you are using to rub the ink around (not the brayer)?
It's called a baren and it's great for smoothing papers and burnishing. Yasutomo is the brand name.
@@KarenElaine thanks!!!
is there a list of your tools somewhere?
I am having a problem finding the high contrast apps that you mention in the App Store. Can you help me get those apps?
Hard time finding too. It’s NotanIzer $1:99
Do you have to use a laser printer? Regular copies from a copy store won’t work?
Laser printer copies will work while ink jet copies will not. Most copies from stores are laser prints. I hope this helps!
@@KarenElaine i haven't been successful with my laser prints at all yet, unfortunately. i want to use my own photos, not just magazines 😕
I can't get any kind of printer copy to work including laser
Is there a time constraint on the paint drying? I've tried doing it immediately and waiting for the paint to get sticky
Really beautiful but i missed some parts
You made them flowers with a glue gun your amazing
Can u use an inkjet to transfer?
No. Only laser. And the copy must be very recently!!
Some are clear… but starting not clear , what the pages are and how the print takes places ..
your photographic prints, are they ink jet or toner?
Hi Ritchie, they are toner prints. 🙂
@@KarenElaine sorry, one more. Will the image pick up any color? In other word, could I do 3 half-tone images and print them separately C, M, Y paints?
@@flossflink great question! I’m pretty sure the image will be up any color, so give your idea a go! Let me know how they turn out. Cheers!
👍👍👍💕💕💕🇩🇰
are you using acryllics?
C'est de l encre acrylique ou gouache ???..joli Is gout.
Where can I purchase a gel plate??
Amazone
I like how you use watercolor paper , kind of agree , you don’t show all the steps .
Can you spell the app please
can you please wright down the name of the app you use?
Notan or Notanizer. 😀
I cannot find tha app either
Great content though
Thank you for the kind comment! The app is called Notanizer. I got it from the Apple app store. Notan Live is another one I use. Cheers!
What is the name of the photos app?
It's called Notanizer 🙂
How do u spell the app u use? Ty
Found ty
Notan or Notanizer. I think they are free IOs and Android apps.
Are you using paint or ink?
Hi, I am using acrylic paints.
I've tried so many times and I always end up with nothing on the plate........
I had the same problem until I ran the paper through the laser printer three times. You need plenty of toner on the image to make a decent transfer.
@@KarenElaine I have no laser printer, I use images from Vogue
I have the same issue.
Excellent demo tutorial - very clear and helpful for me, as a life long artist but a beginner at gelli prints or hand prints of any kind. 🩵💛🩵
Great to hear!
the names of the applications please! can you write it? Thank you
Notanlzer $1.99
I use Notanizer and Notan Live. One is free and the other is $1.99. Great apps!
Spent a fortune on laser printing. Cannot get one image transfer! I don't think this is even possible.
It didnt work first time cos you fiddled about and it dried before putting paper on.
Long way around! Confusing with original idea of video!
Oh gosh, show us the photo you are using
So confusing for a beginner … what are you doing? But thanks anyway.
You don’t finish your sentences! It’s driving me crazy to try to follow the narrative.
I've been that way since I was a little girl. My parents used to call me Edith (the character in Laugh In, who never finished her sentences) You can always turn off the sound or find another video if it drives you crazy. ☺Sorry, it's just who I am.
I agree with Minna but I guess like your parents I find you quite unintentionally hilarious ! But your outcomes are great!
Nice work but way too much confusing talking for me. The video would be much shorter and more clear without all the talking. Thanks anyway.
Thank you. I thought I was the only one who couldn’t stand the talking. Way too much
But, she’s explaining things when she talks. What’s confusing?
No way u could end up with leaves and all that texture when all u pressed was words...no stamps or stencils. Did u send edited 2 videos into 1 leaving out steps and not giving clear look at results.
Hi Rhonda, this is a recording of a live Zoom class showing how to make image transfers with magazines and laser prints using a gel plate. It hasn't been edited and is in real-time. It's one continuous unedited video, nothing fancy but hopefully informative.
WTH?
I had to stop watching this video because you are not showing certain steps for example the first magazine that you lay down you don't show us exactly what the magazine picture looks like we only see the back of the page. Unfortunately for tutorials since I'm just learning I have to see every step
Oh please I figured it out. Not that hard. I think it’s great beginner’s tutorial
Great video I'm new to this and I thought it was a good tutorial
I totally agree … not clear , what the pages and how the print takes places ..
We can all learn, and nobody is perfect ❤.... and I've seen a lot worse!
Agregar! Did you find another titorial that explains those steps? I'm looking for it.😊
