I am sharing the links to 2 videos that may help you.
The first one is a very fast clip of my “yoga” printmaking exercise. The purpose is to:
- build muscle memory
- suspend judgement
- make a pile of prints
The second video is how I get the gelatin plate out of the pan. This is important if you plate is fragile and just made with gelatin and water. The glycerin, gelatin and water recipe is much stronger and does not have to be handled so carefully
Have a wonderful day.
