stamping tools

Do you collect tools for Mixed Media Printmaking?

When I am in the flow, I see mark making tools all around me.

Do you?

I  pick it up and add it to my box of treasures.  You never know what is going to make a fabulous impression in the ink on your gelatin plate.

Do you recognize some of the “tools” in my
boxes?

Even better than using my tools is to start your own box of stamping tools for gelatin plate monotype printing.  

You could post your tools picture with the Gelatin Printmaking flickr group or the Gelatin printmaking Facebook page.  Share a link  to pictures of your box of tools in the comments below and inspire us!

Happy Printing.

Simple Mark making tools – Gelatin Prints

I am playing with some old film reels, round things,  tops from shampoo containers and a bit of thin yarn to make marks in the ink on the gelatin plate.
