Mastering High Contrast on the Gel Plate: Black, White & Grey

High contrast can completely transform your gel prints—and in this session, I’m keeping things simple and bold. I’m working primarily in black and white, and occasionally Payne’s gray, to create strong, graphic gel printed papers. You’ll also see how I layer new prints over existing ones to improve composition, increase contrast, and rescue prints that felt unfinished or flat. This is a powerful technique if you’ve ever looked at a stack of gel prints and thought, “These are almost there.” If you love gel printing, collage papers, and abstract layering, this video will give you fresh ideas for working with contrast and making your prints work harder for you. ✨ In this video you’ll see: High-contrast gel printing techniques Black & white printing Layering over existing gel prints How to strengthen weak or unfinished prints Creating bold collage papers with minimal color 👉 Perfect for gel printers, mixed-media artists, and collage lovers. 🎨 JOIN THE JOY OF GEL PRINTING: https://mixedmediamastery.com/joy-of-...
