Gelli plate printing is an incredibly fun and rewarding way to create a series of printed artworks. Participants will explore the natural environment for inspiration and also materials to use in the creation of their prints. Acrylic paint is placed on to the Gelli plate before textured items are pressed in to the surface. Artists then place paper down on the Gelli plate and rub with the palm of their hand before revealing their amazing print! The possibilities with this technique are endless! They will also create a larger artwork involving a series of prints on the one surface.
Sessions are for three hours with a half hour morning tea break (depending on the group of children, we may have an extra break too).
Children are to bring their own afternoon tea (no nuts please) water bottle and hat.
Please dress your child in clothing that can potentially get messy.
Maximum in class is 10 children.
Tuesday 11th April 1.30pm - 4.30pm
