Gelli monoprint/monotype on paper (I believe the ones made with stencils are monoprints, since I can use the stencil to pull multiples, while the ones where I painted directly on the plate are monotypes because there is only one full print, and maybe a ghost print.)
The abstract pieces are part of my Sun Dances series derived from plant shadows; they were made by arranging paper 'left over' after cutting out plant shapes (eg the shapes of the holes in the leaves)
5 X 7 inches (printed area)
A Gelli plate is a commerically made gelatin-type plate for monoprint/monotyping that makes it very very easy to pull prints without a press. I got one in January of last year and had loads of fun playing with different techniques. You can google for more info on Gelli printing, this link looks pretty good: keetonsonline.wordpress.com/2013/05/16/all-about-gelli-pl...

Circles and swirly lines _ stencils. Ghost prints of the circles. They may need a little something...
Some monoprints I pulled this weekend with the Gelli Plate. I'll be using them as backgrounds in my art journal.
Blogged about here:
Monoprint on copier paper
Gelli printing plate
Block printing ink - red, orange & yellow
OHP masks
String
Ghost prints and those where the colours are most muted are my favourites. This is my favourite from the lot. Scanning hasn't quite done it justice but the colours are very muted in the original.
I think it's probably a work in progress. It may get a splash of red at some point to finish it off.

Gelli fun: acrylics on paper.
I just needed an evening of art last night. Took out the gelli plate and made 21 prints. Some are done. Some need work.
Yes it's an addiction, haha.
