Fee: $25 (member price: $20)

Location: 2-D Studio, Salmon River Fine Arts Center
Discover the creative possibilities of layered printmaking in this hands-on Gelli Plate workshop! Students will explore how to build rich, dynamic compositions by collaging directly onto the gel plate using multiple images and layers while learning how to think from foreground to background.
Throughout the workshop, participants will experiment with layering techniques, transparency, texture, and composition while discovering how each print evolves through process and experimentation.
Students will explore:
• Creating layered compositions directly on the Gelli Plate
• Building images from front to back using multiple printed layers
• Incorporating collage elements into prints
• Using stencils and masks to create depth, pattern, and visual interest
• Exploring metallic accents through the use of metal leaf
• Creating texture, transparency, and complex surfaces through print layering
• Developing unique mixed media prints through experimentation and play
This class is perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike who enjoy process-based artmaking, mixed media exploration, and discovering unexpected creative results. Students will leave with a collection of one-of-a-kind prints and a deeper understanding of layered image-making techniques.
Come ready to experiment, embrace happy accidents, and create beautifully layered artwork!
All materials will be supplied. This is an in-person class. Register in person or online here: https://salmonriverfineartscenter.square.site/
