Gel Plate Image Transfer
In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to transfer images from laser copies or magazine pages onto a gel plate, and then imprint those images onto paper stock. The process opens up a world of possibilities for creating unique, textured artwork.
As you work, you'll have the opportunity to experiment with layering paints over your transferred images, adding depth and dimension to your creations. These one-of-a-kind prints are perfect for journaling, collage, or simply as standalone art pieces.
This workshop is ideal for those with previous experience in gel plate printing who want to expand their skills.

Instructor - Joanne Lomas
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.
