Angela Glick
Yes, I learned a LOT and as a result I'm motivated to continue to play with my gel plate on my own in new and inventive ways! You "demystified" my gel printing experience. I had played with it a good bit before this course, but because of the course I'm no longer intimidated by it and look forward to every session I spend with it!
Winsome Brown
Joy in creativity, joy in letting go of perfectionism, joy in the sheer messiness of dabbling in paint, joy in community. Tania takes you on a journey where you discover what to do with that gel plate you bought with every good intention and also rediscover your inner child - the one that made something, looked at it and was happy. With a wealth of ideas and techniques, and an ever-present bubbling undercurrent of enthusiasm, she makes this one of the best on-line courses I have experienced. Hooked on gel printing? ~ you bet!
