New friendships made, old friends reconnected, and plenty of art was created! We experimented with Gelli Plates by GelliArts. These are printing plates where you roll paint on a firm jelly surface (think Jello jigglers), then press a piece of paper on top to print or pull the paint off. It's really fun and the results are quite fascinating... if you go into this with zero expectations that is. Have specific expectations and you may be sorely disappointed. Have none and you are very likely to be delighted!
