Join Heather Carey for a live demonstration exploring the tools and techniques she uses to create expressive monoprints with a gel plate. She’ll share her favorite paints, explain which formulas perform best, and demonstrate how she incorporates texture tools, stencils, image transfers, and even live plants into her layered compositions. Heather will also compare results across a variety of surfaces, including butcher paper, tea bag paper, patterned paper, and wood, revealing how each substrate influences the final print. Participants will have the opportunity to try the process themselves and leave with their own original monoprint.
