Experimental Gelli Printing Processes and Techniques with Clare Cosens

Jayne M reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing - Experimenting with Image transfer with Clare Cosens

"An informative and fun couple of hours. Clare shared her knowledge and experience, allowing us to play and achieve satisfying progress and prints with this tricky image transfer technique, that none of us had been successful in achieving by ourselves. It was satisfying and I left with the confidence to play and try some more. "

Clare Cosens Designs responded:

"I'm so pleased to hear that you came away from my workshop with the confidence to try again at home. Your prints looked amazing, I loved the the combination of colours that you used. Feel free to send pictures of future prints, I love to see how people get on. Happy Printing!"

"I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop with Clare. She is a great facilitator, clear, patient and skilled. It was a most enjoyable creative experience which I’d definitely recommend. I now have some beautiful prints to work with in my journalling practice, or indeed frame and gift, of which I’m proud. Absolutely worth the money! Thank you, Clare."

Anne W. reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing Workshop by Clare Cosens

"Clare's Gelli Printing course was a gift from a friend and we both attended. What a fantastic gift! Even though I love art and craft I had never heard of Gelli printing before. It was all new and Clare was an amazing teacher, very patient and encouraging. She was also kind enough to allow me to return the next day to pick up a couple of prints that I'd inadvertently left behind. We're hoping to attend more of Clare's courses in future."

Clare Cosens Designs responded:

"I'm really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the workshop. Many thanks for your kind words and I look forward to seeing your again in the near future."

"The gelli plate printing workshop on 19th Jan was excellent. So much teaching and hands on took place during the session, with plenty of encouragement and opportunity for experimentation and development of ideas. It was well resourced, fast paced but not rushed and delivered in relaxed friendly manner. Thankyou Clare. "

Jan Meaney reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing Workshop by Clare Cosens

"I am by no means an artistic person, but thoroughly enjoyed the Gelli print session. I learnt a new skill and am quite impressed with what I produced in such a short time. That is down to the presentation skills of Clare, who shared her knowledge in such an easy and relaxed way that all was so easy to follow. When I got stuck she was there with encouragement and help. Great session I highly recommend "

"Thank you for your kind words, they mean the world. I'm really pleased that you enjoyed the workshop. Your prints looked amazing!"

Holly reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing Workshop by Clare Cosens

"Had a brilliant time at Clare's workshop. Clare was really friendly and put everyone at ease and the small group size meant she had plenty of time to help everybody out as we practised the techniques. The workshop was really well-structured with clear instructions and plenty of time to practice - the two hours flew by. I would absolutely recommend Clare's workshop to anybody who would like to learn more about the technique - or just have a really fun morning trying something new! "

"Very good workshop explaining basics of using gelli plate and many top tips from Clare's experience . We had time to experiment and come away with some really nice prints. Workroom very good."

Jen reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing Workshop by Clare Cosens

Caroline reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing - Experimenting with Image transfer with Clare Cosens

"A lovely present from a friend - I didn't know what to expect as I haven't done any courses like this before. Clare put me at ease, explaining each process in detail and then there was lots of time to experiment and try everything yourself. The time went in a flash and everything we did was really informative and interesting. Clare was very positive with all our efforts and great at suggesting how to use these skills. I would also say that a single sheet with all the paint, paper types would be useful as you tend to forget these finer details. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you Clare."

Clare Cosens Designs responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review Caroline. I’m really pleased that you enjoyed the workshop. Your prints looked fantastic, I loved your colour combinations."

Allison Taylor reviewed: Gelli Plate Printing - Experimenting with Image transfer with Clare Cosens

"Clare made me feel welcome into her great studio, making me feel at ease. This is the first course I have done with Clare, although she said it was the hardest to start with, her demonstrations and support made it easy and enjoyable. The Gelli printing was fascinating and allowed everyone to work at their own pace and to experiment with different techniques. The outcomes were great and made me feel as though I had achieved something. Clare created a calm and fun atmosphere. Her instructions and support throughout were spot on. The only suggestion for improvement would be to provide an idiots guide on an A4 sheet. Thank you Clare. "

Clare Cosens Designs responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review Allison. I’m really pleased that you enjoyed the workshop. Your image transfer prints looked fantastic! "
