gelatin plate print aprox 4″ x 6″
This print shows the great detail that I can get with the gelatin plate printing process. The texture in the background is created by stamping the surface of the inked gelatin plate with a collograph plate. The collograph plate is simply a cd covered with bits of masking tape. The image of the girl is simply a paper stencil. I coat the stencils with matt medium so they last longer. More gelatin printing information. Enjoy!
Love it! I need to try this soon.
Nice! I find that OHP (thin plastic)is good for stencils too – you can cut out shapes with a textiles soldering iron.
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing your process. sus
Thanks for the feedback and ideas. Happy printing
Very cool! Will try next time I’m working with gelatin!
