Synopsis

Gel plate printing offers an approachable way to produce monotypes using flexible plates, without the need for a press. Jessica Russo Scherr explains how to work with paints, inks, stencils and texture, and how to bring photography, painting and mixed media into the process.

Step-by-step, full-colour photographs break each method into manageable stages, supported by tips for layering imagery and exploring colour relationships. The book also considers how to balance photographic precision with painterly expression, while encouraging readers to develop their own creative voice through this versatile medium.
