Description

Explore the playful, creative world of gel plate printing in this hands-on four-week course. Gel printing is an accessible, exciting form of printmaking that doesn’t require any specialist tools or a printing press—just a gel plate, ink or paint, and your imagination. You’ll learn how to create layered prints, use stencils and masks, experiment with colour and texture, and produce a variety of unique prints to take home. This course is perfect for beginners or anyone wanting a fun, creative experience with lots of surprising and satisfying results. Each session includes demonstrations, guided projects and time for personal exploration.

What's included in the price?

All materials are supplied, including the use of gel plates, but you’re very welcome to bring along any favourite stencils, textures or papers you’d like to experiment with. Tea and Coffee will be provided each week. You'll also have access to the Student Chatroom (online), a dedicated place where you can post images of your work, share your progress, and receive feedback from both fellow students and myself.

FAQs

Yes! All courses are designed to be flexible and welcoming, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to build on existing skills. Sessions are tailored to your experience and interests, so you can learn at your own pace with the right level of support.

Yes, I do ask that under 16's attend with an adult to support and supervise them. I also suggest that the course isn't suitable for those under 6. But I am happy to discuss your needs on an individual basis. Feel free to get in touch.
