From Plate to Book: Gel Printing with Debbie Taylor Worley
Ink it, print it, fold it! Dive into gel printing with Debbie Taylor Worley and create your own vibrant concertina artist book.
Join Gamilaraay artist Debbie Taylor Worley for a hands-on workshop exploring the vibrant world of gel (or gelli) printing—a playful mono-printing technique that uses soft gelatin plates to layer colour, texture, and pattern in unexpected ways.
In this creative session, you’ll work with botanics, stencils and a variety of mark-making tools to produce expressive, textured prints. Under Debbie’s guidance, you'll then transform your collection of prints into a unique, keepsake concertina artist book to take home.
This workshop is perfect for beginners and experienced creatives alike, offering a relaxed, welcoming space to explore new techniques and spark your imagination.
What’s Included:
- All materials (gel plates, brayers, paints, paper, and tools)
- Step-by-step instruction from Debbie
- Techniques for creating layered, textural prints
- A handmade concertina book featuring your finished works
- Light refreshments to keep the creativity flowing
