It comes directly from the most qualified talent to write the book Gelli Arts' co-founder Joan Bess. After an easy-to-follow introduction to the basics of Gelli printing, readers will be shown over 50 stepped-out techniques for using their Gelli plate, such as incorporating stamping, sponges and stencils, creating collage, faux chine colle, using ghost prints and much, much more. In addition, over 20 inspiring gallery artists will contribute finished art that uses the techniques.

Everything You Need to Know About Gelli Plate Printing
This is a fabulous book. Great for a beginner like me. Starts with the tools, then shows the author's work space and explains how she set it up. The author shows you the most basic steps and gradually takes you to more advanced techniques. It is very clearly written and the pictures are big so you can see what is happening. This book is like a work shop. I am very impressed with it.

Gel press printing
Zillions of ideas. Many ways to create using a Gel press include ideas to make your own tools for use with the Press. The recommended Golden acrylic paints are expensive in Aus so I’m trialing more accessible brands. The book is a real asset for anyone who owns a gel press or is planning to get one. Very pleased I bought it.
