Rockroses

 Yesterday morning I tried combining two different gelliprinting techniques - using natural materials and then hand made stencils. The following photographs should vaquely explain the process. I look forward to developing these trials into a finished piece. 

One of the final prints.

Cutting stencils and foam printing blocks.

Masking off the bottom half of the plate and using vegetation for the top half.

The first steps for the bottom half - pale yellow, having masked off the top. 

The combined first stage.

Adding the darker yellow ...some stencils were palced on the palte ....others directly on the print - attached with blutac...see below. 


..and onto green....


The final print with a foam blok of leaves to add t he darker paint. It lacked something so wax crayon was added ...see below.
