Day 6 September Vine #2

Day 6 - Gel Print - Acrylics on Fabriano watercolour paper. When printing there is always an uncertainty as to how something will turn out. In this case I am pleased with the result of the purple over top of the orange and then green on top of that. September Vine #2

Botanical Print #4


Day 4 Gel Print - Acrylic paint on 8 x 10 water colour paper. I used reds and iridescent gold for the base layer and then printed over top with titanium white mixed with teal blue. The impressions of the leaves and stems and the complimentary warm and cool colours have made some great prints.

Day1 Botanical Print #1

Day 1 - Gel print 8 x 10  Acrylic paint on watercolour paper. Hi all and welcome to the Challenge.
I am printing with a gel plate and will be presenting a series of botanical prints. I am working with pressed wild flowers and garden flowers. In this print I love the positive and negative effects that can be achieved with the plates.
