Hello lovers of the Gelli art! Today I'll show you how I melt some food bags with a heat gun and a wax painting iron (you can use a regular iron), and turning them into landscape collagraphs that I can then print with the Gelli plate.
This is Part 1 of the video, Part 2 (working out with acrylics and colored pencils) will come next week.
This is my whole playlist:
