Beth Taft will introduce you to Gelli Printing and the various tools to help make your own expressive art.
Beth will lead us through a demonstration showing us tools and techniques to create cards, art journals and more. She will share the fun of using various mark-making tools you may have around the house or purchased stencils to create one-of-a-kind looks. Those who make collages or art journals will find this technique just what they were looking for that completely unique look.
Depending on the volume of visitors and if time allows, there may be the opportunity to try the printing process yourself!
