Learn Online • Your Printmaking Journey with GelliArts • 13 Artists • 13 Classes • Lifetime Access

With the physical workshops, you can discover the creative possibilities of gelliplate printmaking in a relaxed, small-group or 1-2-1 workshop at my Dartmouth studio.

Whether you’re completely new to printmaking or looking to expand your existing practice, these workshops offer a practical introduction to layering, texture, mark-making, and monoprint techniques using Gelli Arts® gel printing plates. No printing press—or previous experience—is required.

Each session is limited to one-to-one tuition or a maximum of two participants, giving plenty of time for individual guidance while encouraging experimentation, conversation and the confidence to continue printing long after the day ends.

*Please note that there are steps up to the studio, so unfortunately I can’t accommodate anyone who is in a wheelchair or unable to walk up stairs.

What’s Included:

✔ Full-day workshop (9 am–4 pm) ✔ Professional tuition throughout the day ✔ All materials supplied, including the use of different sizes of GelliArts® gel printing plates ✔ Tea, coffee and refreshments ✔ Portfolio of original prints to take home ✔ Individual feedback tailored to your own interests and experience ✔

FAQ’s

Do I need any experience?

Not at all. The workshops are suitable for complete beginners through to experienced artists and printmakers looking to explore new techniques.

What should I bring?

Just yourself and, if you wish, a packed lunch. Tea, coffee, and all printmaking materials are provided.

Can I bring photographs or sketchbooks?

Absolutely. Please feel free to work from your own reference material or simply explore the techniques on the day.

Will I take work home?

Yes. Everyone leaves with a portfolio of all the original monoprints they have made that day.

Your Printmaking Journey with Gelli Arts®

If getting to Dartmouth isn’t practical — or you’d simply prefer to learn at your own pace — there’s now another way to explore gelliplate printmaking with me.

I’m delighted to be one of 13 artists contributing to Gelli Arts’ Your Printmaking Journey: an online creative event featuring 13 classes across six weeks, with lifetime access to the course material.

My own class is a 40-minute workshop exploring my approach to capturing the character and essence of trees through layered gel printing.

It’s designed to be accessible if you are just beginning with a gel plate, or already have experience and want to take your work in new directions.
