About this lesson
Demonstrates gel printing with pressed plants: mixing muted greens with Titan Buff, rolling out open acrylics, printing with the botanicals in place, then removing them to pull ghost prints on different papers. Finishes with over-printing for tone-on-tone layered compositions on coffee-dyed and typewritten papers.
