Read MoreSusan takes the mystery out of how to achieve wonderful layers using the gel plate and creating wonderful compositions. She combines techniques of printing to enhance finished works. I appreciated her instruction on selecting a color palette, use of different papers and boards to the final finishing techniques. She describes her processes along the way and mentions tools that work best for different applications. I have taken several print classes from well known artists that have also been helpful but this class takes printing and composition to a new level and raises the bar on instruction. All I can say is WELL DONE and thank you Susan for your generosity of sharing your knowledge and process. I can't wait to get into the studio and try out my new learned material and techniques with the confidence that nothing really will be wasted in the learning process. So wonderful to be able to have access to this course to review sections when I am stuck or need a refresher. BRAVO!!
