Additional Information

To print with a Gel Print Plate: Apply and roll acrylic /craft paint onto the Gel Print Plate using a hard roller. Use a variety of different materials, stencils, found objects and tools to create shapes textures or patterns, or mask out areas of the inked surface. It’s important to never “dig” into the actual surface of the Gel Plate, work with and manipulate the paint only. Cover the inked surface with a sheet of paper, then rub over to transfer the print.

Cleaning: It’s best to remove the remaining paint from the Gel Print Plate first by creating ‘blank’ prints onto scrap paper (you may choose to use these prints in your artwork). To loosen and remove paint that’s dried on the plate, simply reapply paint with a roller and take a print or two onto scrap paper. Once as much paint has been removed, a wet cloth or paper towel can be used to gently wipe the surface of the plate. Store the Gel Print Plate in its packaging to protect it between uses.

Printmaking is an essential learning area in the Visual Arts as it provides students with a range of opportunities to develop their creative and critical thinking skills, build fine motor skills, enhance their understanding of how to use positive and negative space in a composition as well as problem solve.
