Gelatin Printing on Fabric

I am getting ready for a new session of Monoprinting Fabric with the gelatin plate.

Printing on fabric with the gelatin plate is very experimental. It is always a surprise to see what kind of marks I can get.

I use the same tools as I use when I gelatin print on paper,

  • Stencils both found and cut
  • Stamping tools to manipulate the ink

I use acrylic screen print ink and inexpensive cotton fabric. Read more about my ink experiments here.

I like to work with small squares of fabric gathering all the different kinds of marks that stem from this process.
