What is gelli printing?
Gelli printing is a unique (monotype) printing process that uses a gel plate as a matrix and inks that dry slowly, most often acrylic paint. The uniqueness of this technique lies in its flexible matrix, which allows for highly accurate imprinting and endless possibilities for creating texture. You can even do photo transfers! The variety of surfaces you can print on is also broader—since the matrix is flexible, you can easily print on everyday objects like clothing. Gelli printing is also very inexpensive compared to other printing techniques. The plates can be made at home using only food-grade gelatin and glycerin. Once the matrix is damaged, you just need to melt it down to reuse it.
