Gelatin Monoprinting is Wonderful!

Besides being incredibly talented, I think Rayna Gillman is not just a great instructor, she's also absolutely hilarious (my six year old agrees, and he enjoyed her DVD too!). Her techniques are very user friendly and her instruction is even friendlier. I think I could watch this once a week and still enjoy it! Monoprinting is FUN and the DVD just inspires more brainstorming... fabric, paper, ribbon, coins, bubblewrap, pantyhose, leaves, yarn, handprints, toys, veggie wrap, saran wrap, paintbrushes etc etc etc NOTHING is safe around this technique!
