About this Event

You'll end class with 5-10 unique prints and a wealth of knowledge to continue using your new skills. With simple and easy-to-understand instructions, you’ll learn how to apply color and add texture with stencils, stamps and found objects. The possibilities are endless for creative exploration. It’s the perfect activity for novice crafters and professional artists alike. No experience necessary. Warning: Gel plate printmaking is addictive.

This is a very easy project for anyone to do and absolutely no art, painting or drawing experience is needed to achieve amazing results.
We’ll be using gel printing plates and acrylic paint. Gel plate printing is a monotype printing technique, combining the spontaneity of drawing and printmaking to create truly one-of-a-kind pieces of art. As the name for this print making method implies (mono), no two pieces will be alike.

About the Instructor:
Sonja has had a lifelong passion for creating art and loves experimenting and exploring a variety of different mediums. Her successful artistic career began as a graphic designer in the 90s. Jewelry making and metalsmithing followed in 2004, with the first of many juried art shows and awards. She loves sharing the creative journey with others through group classes and individual tutoring. Her google reviews confirm her commitment to providing a welcoming environment for anyone to enjoy creative inspiration. She also teaches, creates and sells out of her studio in Orlando, Florida at Autumn & Ro where you can view her work along with 20 other local artists. Her jewelry can be viewed at sonjajeanette.com.
