Gelli Arts Tutorial: Create Animal Collages with Household Items

Mary Beggs Bosley demonstrates how to create gel prints using household items and transform them into whimsical animal collages. The tutorial, published on the Gelli Arts blog, includes a video and step-by-step instructions. Bosley applies acrylic paint to a Gelli Arts gel plate with a brayer, then uses items like combs, cornstarch, bubble wrap, and cotton balls to add texture. After pulling prints, she draws simple shapes for animal heads, ears, and bodies, cuts them out, and adheres them to backgrounds with a glue stick. The process can be adapted for various animals. The post lists household items and materials, including a Gelli Arts gel plate, acrylic paint, brayer, printer paper, chalk pastel, glue stick, and scissors. Bosley encourages readers to tag their prints and provides links to Gelli Arts products and social media channels.
