printmaking without a press with Linda Germain: Freeze the Gelatin Plate and REFRESH it

So it works! My gelatin plate feels a little weak but it worked fine for the few prints that I pulled in my 85 degree studio. So I am going to freeze the rest of my plates and melt and shape them just before the workshop next week. Happy Printing

"Linda's guided process (yoga printmaking?) is instantly effective to arrest self-censoring, free the impulse, and introduce essential "moves" in mono-printing. She provides the tools and atmosphere that nurture the student's unique creative vocabulary."
