Hi! I'm Tania Ahmed and I am a Serial Gel Printer and Mixed Media Artist with over 12 years of experience in the art and craft industry. I am also very proud to be a Gelli Arts® Brand Ambassador.
I have taught art classes internationally and taken part in several online classes and summits. I am passionate about teaching what I have learnt, as I know what it is like to be an overwhelmed beginner.
Gel Print Academy is a culmination of everything that I have learnt through trial and error, extensive research and making thousands of gel prints!
I was just like you, and I had no idea where to start, and why my prints looked dull. I couldn't get my gel prints to work the way I wanted them.
I felt overwhelmed and unsure, it took me a long time to slowly learn through play and practice ... now gel printing is my zen and obsession!
my prints used to look like this
... and now they look like this
... and this!

A wonderful lesson. Thank you Tania!!! You explained what you were doing and why and how to use the various materials very thoroughly and that means that you are an excellent teacher. And I agree with the others... your voice is so pleasant and soothing. It made for a very calming and enjoyable lesson!!!
Spark Your Creative Mojo Workbook
I loved the whole thing! I am really hard on myself and very critical of the things that I make. You have shown me a way to stop being so hard on myself and my work. Thank you!
Demystifying Mixed Media Class
One of the best classes I have taken. Very precise instructions and great inspiration. The techniques shown were usable and user friendly. I see myself referring back to the class often. I recommend this class to all card makers as well as anyone wanting to get into mixed media.
