Trace Monoprint on a Gelatin Print

This gelatin plate print has a light blue “detailed impression” on top of a couple of other detailed layers and a black trace monoprint. It is another hot day. My gelatin was good for about an hour, then I put it back in the refrigerator.

Warm day for Gelatin Prints

Today I have been playing with the sticks and stones series. The more I try to control the result the less control I seem to have. It is time for the pool now and time for the gelatin to go back into the refrigerator. I am reminded that I really like to have some darks and lights in my final image and some bright color too. I found a great website last night kickstarter.com It is a site to try to get funding for an artistic project. Inspiring stuff. I also found www.awesomefoundation.org Another site for funding creative projects. www.linda-germain.com

Linda Germain prepares for NAA Fall show

I am hoping the ink will dry this weekend on some of these gelatin prints. I would like to enter a gelatin print from this new series of “stones” that I am working on. These prints are bigger and more abstract than my paper doll dress series. I have printed several on old map pages. I think these are going to be my favorites. The Newburyport Art Association fall show runs from August 21 – September 27 and the reception is August 22 from 7 to 9 PM Gallery hours are: Closed Tuesdays. Open other Weekdays & Saturdays, 11 am – 5 pm, and Sundays, 1 – 5 pm http://www.linda-germain.com/
