During this workshop, participants will learn the technique of transferring an image from a laser copy or magazine page to a gel plate and then from the gel plate onto paper stock. The resulting image may be left as it is, or additional layers of paint can be applied as desired. These creations can be used for journaling or collage. It's an afternoon of experimentation and learning how to use the gel printing plate in a new and exciting way.
Previous experience with gel plate printing is suggested.
All materials provided.

Joanne Lomas is a long time resident of Simcoe County. Her work is mainly focused on landscape. She is an avid camper, hiker and traveler and loves to explore her surroundings with paint and photography. Her work is intuitive, relying on the moment and how the medium reacts to the surface. Painting abstractly with subtle expressions of familiarity, Joanne's paintings encourage the viewer to experience the moment as their own. Her photography is a blend of her own photographs reworked in her own painterly technique. Joanne is also a printmaker, always trying new methods for creating images.
She loves to teach and help others find joy in art.
