About this book

The ultimate guide to creating gorgeous mixed-media art with gel plates!

Gel plate printing is an approachable new way of making creative mono prints without a press. Using the flexible printing plates, artists can use paints, inks, stencils, and different textures to create mixed-media prints. Now, noted artist and instructor Jessica Russo Scherr shares her groundbreaking secrets for bringing together photography, painting, and printmaking to make unique works of art.

This book breaks down what might seem like complex processes into approachable steps. By layering images and exploring color relationships, Scherr shows how to make prints that honor both photographic precision and painterly expression. She also helps readers find their creative voice through this versatile medium. Whether you're a seasoned printmaker or just beginning to explore artistic expression, this book will help you explore the endless possibilities of gel plate printmaking.
