Aug. 6: cool, fun USArtQuest workshop planned

usartquest-gelliplate-class

(Chelsea Update would like to thank USArtQuest for the information in this story.)

Gelli Plates — the most fun you’ll ever have in one creative gizmo.

We were super tickled that Deena Hodson and Sally Rypkema stopped by USArtQuest one day and agreed to tag-team teach using this useful tool. You’ll learn all the Gelli basics, and lots more about the process of making Gelli Plate Prints and mixing media.

The workshop will take place Thursday, Aug. 6 from 10 a.m. -1 p.m. Bring a sack lunch. The cost is $50 and all materials provided. But, you’re welcome to bring your favorite stamp or stencil. All materials and Gelli Plates are available at USArtQuest, 18650 W. Old US-12.

These two gals are super fun, talented and certainly creative.

You can purchase your own Gelli Plate at USArtQuest, or share a plate with other artists, all the while using our acrylic paints, lovely art papers, and fabric squares, rubber stamps, stencils and brayers.

Make collage elements and wrapping paper, greeting cards, and scrapbook pretties – the possibilities are endless. This class starts with a demo, then it’s all hands-on, making for a fun and creative day. Take home pieces that can be transformed into fabulous art or a simple journal cover. The process is as much fun as the product.

Call today to register at 734-562-2662 or sign up here.
