ICAD – 61 Tiny Gelatin Prints

A gelatin Print a day for 61 days

I  have always admired those people who can do a daily print or painting or whatever.  So I am jumping on board.  Daisy Yellow has been doing Index Card A Day (ICAD) for years.  Wow what commitment.  I know it will pay off in ways that I can not imagine.  I can commit to 61 days in June and July.

Yet, it is hard to make just one gelatin print.

Have you ever been able to make just one gelatin print?  Set up  takes a little time and usually I have to warm up with a few ugly gelatin prints.  My way is to work back and forth between several layers and several prints.  There is no rule that says I have to make just one.

“I am committed to making one index card gelatin print a day for the next 61 days.”

You will have to hold me accountable.  Maybe you could even join me.

Check out the details at Daisy Yellow Art.  See the work on the flickr group and the Facebook page.

Enjoy the weekend!

  1. You’re a rock star Linda. I look forward to seeing your daily prints. You better share your love & talent with the rest of the world. HaPpY, HaPpY, JoY, JoY, JoY <3 miss our tea times <3

  2. Linda, I’m so PSCHED that you will be joining us! I love your work and I love working with authentic gelatin plates. You CAN do this. I have no doubts!

  3. I learnt to make a gelatin plate using your blog! I am excited to see what you produce on your index cards. I would think it was almost impossible to make just one. 🙂 It is very addictive, I was a little begrudging that children still wanted to be fed and have clean clothes while I was in a printing frenzy!.:D You are right…there are no rules!!
