5 Gel Plate Transfer Techniques That Add Amazing Texture FroyleArt 2025-08-23 | In today’s video, I’m sharing five of my favourite gel plate transfer techniques that add amazing texture to your artwork. I start by painting directly on the plate to create bold, painterly effects, then move into using masks to shape striking silhouettes. From there, I bring in stamps and even water to build unexpected textures, and then take things further by layering on gold leaf sheets for a luminous, metallic shine. Finally, I combine everything into one richly layered print so you can see how these ideas work together.Whether you’re just starting out with gel printing or looking for new ways to push your creativity, these techniques will give you so many possibilities to explore in your own art. I can’t wait to see what you create!Videos I mentioned - ** Home Laser Printer for Image Transfers - Does It Actually Work?youtu.be/1ZHLnIq0sHI** I Tried Gold Leaf on the Gel Plate—Here’s What Happenedyoutu.be/SoLHcArFW0E** How I Turned Gold Leaf Experiments Into a Beautiful Gel Plate Collageyoutu.be/cCgQDbaVPhg** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart/** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** My favourite art supplies that I use -Brother Color Laser printer (HL-L3220CDW) - amzn.to/4ov4XAvGelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oGel Elf - https://a.co/d/a5JklkbSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7MEEDEN Acrylic Paint Set 100 Colours - amzn.to/4b01UJdGolden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZUGolden Fluid Permanent Violet - amzn.to/3p0NwdCGolden Fluid Acrylic Paint - Titan Buff - amzn.to/45w0fs3Liquitex Basics Alizarin Crimson Hue - amzn.to/3Pk1QspLiquitex Basics Prussian Blue - amzn.to/45XXiDXLiquitex Basics Unbleached Titanium - amzn.to/3Pwo0HQLiquitex Basics Cobalt Blue Hue - amzn.to/3CjbSqRLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Gold - amzn.to/3OoMrbJLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Pink - amzn.to/3Ua9QlgLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Turquoise - amzn.to/3PXesZmLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Violet - amzn.to/4hlXZcULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Grey - amzn.to/3JjbBpOLiquitex Heavy Body Iridescent Rich Gold - amzn.to/3V30FSNLiquitex Iridescent Rose Gold - amzn.to/3z6GZGESome of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

Stop Wasting Collage Papers! 3 Ways to Use Every Scrap FroyleArt 2025-09-06 | In this video I’m taking on a fun challenge — creating three very different collages, all from my scrap paper bags. I start small with a miniature collage on watercolour paper, then move up to a larger 16 x 20" piece to really stretch out and play with scale. Finally, I head to the gel plate and build a layered collage that brings everything together with rich textures and surprising details.It’s amazing what you can make using only leftover scraps — every little piece has a story, and when you bring them together they transform into something completely new.

Home Laser Printer for Image Transfers - Does It Actually Work?

How I Turned Gold Leaf Experiments Into a Beautiful Gel Plate Collage FroyleArt 2025-07-19 | Today I’m continuing my gold leaf experiments—this time adding more layers, more texture, and more creative play. I’m combining stamps, stencils, and image transfers on the gel plate, using both gold and copper leaf to create shimmering, interesting surfaces that catch the light in beautiful ways.After testing and playing with different techniques, I gather the papers I created—including some from my first round of experiments—and bring everything together in one gel print collage. Using my large gel plate, I create the entire layered collage in one pull, letting all those colours, textures, and metallic touches come together in a single expressive piece.The finished collage turned out just amazing—rich, layered, and full of depth. It’s a reminder that even when things don’t work out the first time, the process itself leads to something beautiful.** Video 1- I Tried Gold Leaf on the Gel Plate—Here’s What Happenedyoutu.be/SoLHcArFW0E** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** Joggles Dance Moves Stencilsjoggles.com/stencils/joggles-froyle-davies-stencils-and-masks** Taperlogy FroyleArt Collection - taperlogy.com/collections/froyleart15% Coupon Code - FroyleArt243** My favourite art supplies that I use -Gelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7Horsdo Teabag Paper - amzn.to/3M8KqQ0Liquitex Basics Turquoise Blue - amzn.to/3PZdry1Liquitex Basics Prussian Blue - amzn.to/45XXiDXLiquitex Basics Alizarin Crimson Hue - amzn.to/3Pk1QspLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Copper - amzn.to/3AowjBbLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Bronze - amzn.to/3O6mxKMGolden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZUGolden Fluid Quinacridone Violet - amzn.to/46z1rvoGolden Fluid Acrylic Paint - Titan Buff - amzn.to/45w0fs3Liquitex Heavy Body Muted Pink - amzn.to/3Ua9QlgLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Turquoise - amzn.to/3PXesZmLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Violet - amzn.to/4hlXZcULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Grey - amzn.to/3JjbBpOLiquitex Heavy Body Iridescent Rich Gold - amzn.to/3V30FSNLiquitex Iridescent Rose Gold - amzn.to/3z6GZGEMEEDENHeavy Body Acrylic Paint Set 100 Colours - amzn.to/4b01UJdHeavy Body Acrylic Paint Set 48 Colours - Neon, Pastel, & Metallic - amzn.to/3QQIZJ5Set of 12 Vibrant Colours Basic - amzn.to/3JK2j6FSet of 12 Metallic Colours - amzn.to/4bip6lMSet of 6 Gleaming Colours - amzn.to/4b0hTHmSet of 12 Pastel Colours - amzn.to/3y5rpubGold Leaf400 Pieces Gold Leaf Sheets, MultiColour - amzn.to/44gHsDaPebeo Mirror Effect Gold Leaves - amzn.to/3QrXfHIPebeo Mixton Relief Gilding Paste - amzn.to/3wibNmyDeco Foil Transfer Sheets - amzn.to/3x3cal8 Some of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

I Tried Gold Leaf on the Gel Plate—Here’s What Happened FroyleArt 2025-07-12 | Today I’m in the studio experimenting with something new—using gold leaf on the gel plate to create rich, luminous textures in my prints. I’ve always loved the glow and elegance of gold leaf, and I wanted to see how it could work alongside the unpredictable beauty of Gelli printing.The truth is, my first few experiments didn’t go as planned. The gold leaf didn’t behave the way I expected, and the results were far from perfect. But that’s part of the creative process—sometimes things don’t work out, and you have to keep going, keep playing, and keep learning.As I continued to experiment, I discovered some useful tips and ideas for making gold leaf work with gel printing. By the end, I found a way to bring the shimmer, texture, and magic of gold leaf into the prints—and the results were worth the struggle.This is a video about exploring new materials, pushing through mistakes, and staying curious until something beautiful appears.** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** Taperlogy FroyleArt Collection - taperlogy.com/collections/froyleart15% Coupon Code - FroyleArt243** My favourite art supplies that I use -Gelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNDylusions Creative Journal Original (11.5 x 8”) - amzn.to/3P4nW1NDylusions Creative Journal Square - amzn.to/3vKS6Ac6 x 8” Concertina Accordion Style Journal - amzn.to/40oy11eYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7Horsdo Teabag Paper - amzn.to/3M8KqQ0Liquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Copper - amzn.to/3AowjBbLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Bronze - amzn.to/3O6mxKMLiquitex Basics Unbleached Titanium - amzn.to/3Pwo0HQGolden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZUGolden Fluid Alizarin Crimson Hue - amzn.to/3BMywavGolden Fluid Permanent Violet - amzn.to/3p0NwdCGolden Fluid Acrylic Quinacridone Magenta -amzn.to/3K5NtXpGolden Fluid Acrylic Paint - Titan Buff - amzn.to/45w0fs3Gold LeafPebeo Mirror Effect Gold Leaves - amzn.to/3QrXfHIPebeo Mixton Relief Gilding Paste - amzn.to/3wibNmyDeco Foil Transfer Sheets - amzn.to/3x3cal8 Deco Foil - Lapis Watercolour - amzn.to/3WZk9KW400 Pieces Gold Leaf Sheets, MultiColour - amzn.to/44gHsDaPebeo Cerne Relief Dimensional Paint Rich Gold - amzn.to/4gMOp2TRelief Dimensional Paint Copper - amzn.to/3zFefVYSome of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

Miniature Collage Art Made Fast and Easy FroyleArt 2025-07-05 | Today I’m creating a series of miniature collage artworks—a simple and satisfying process that turns gel prints into small, layered pieces ready for framing, gifting, or building into larger collages later on.I start with my large 16 x 20" gel plate and lay down one of my Journey Home stencils with a layer of rich bronze paint. After pulling the first print, I take the ghost print and add a fresh layer of colour before placing down small squares of watercolour paper. With one pull, I’m left with 14 beautiful miniature prints, each with a soft bronze background and natural texture.From there, I begin playing—some of the miniatures get an extra layer of stencil detail using stencil butter, while others are transformed into collage compositions using pieces from my scrap bags: fragments of gel prints, handmade Kozo papers, and little treasures saved from past projects.The results are so versatile: you can use these mini artworks as gifts, cards, keepsakes, or even as focal points for larger mixed media pieces down the track. It’s an easy, joyful way to create without overthinking—just layers, play, and possibilities.** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** My favourite art supplies that I use -Gelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7Horsdo Teabag Paper - amzn.to/3M8KqQ0Simon Hurley Metallic Lunar Paste - amzn.to/42BDT9WSimon Hurley Solar Paste Bundle - amzn.to/3WKagj1The Crafters Workshop Stencil Butter 4 pk - amzn.to/3CgvB9nLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Copper - amzn.to/3AowjBbLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Bronze - amzn.to/3O6mxKMLiquitex Basics Mars Black - amzn.to/3CeMm62Golden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Pink - amzn.to/3Ua9QlgLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Turquoise - amzn.to/3PXesZmLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Violet - amzn.to/4hlXZcULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Grey - amzn.to/3JjbBpOLiquitex Heavy Body Iridescent Rich Gold - amzn.to/3V30FSNLiquitex Iridescent Rose Gold - amzn.to/3z6GZGEAmsterdam Standard Pewter - amzn.to/46AXTtfAmsterdam Standard Bronze - amzn.to/3AeTkckAmsterdam Standard Copper - amzn.to/3WRqHugIzink Dye Spray Goldmine - amzn.to/3vRCrzjDina Wakley Gloss Spray Ruby - amzn.to/3LqksYnDina Wakley Gloss Spray Apricot - amzn.to/3trdBIgDina Wakley Gloss Spray Bundle of 12 - amzn.to/467e2p8Some of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

I Mastered Layered Gel Printing with ONE Simple Technique FroyleArt 2025-06-28 | Today I’m continuing my gel print collage adventure with a beautiful one-pull layered print—and this one starts with a magical image transfer. I’m using one of my favourite door photos from Venice, and the moment it lifts off the gel plate is just stunning. The texture, the softness, the mystery—it sets the perfect tone.From there, I layer in handmade collage papers, building soft edges and rich texture. The final pull, using iridescent bronze, ties everything together with a luminous glow. When I mount the finished print onto canvas, it transforms into a complete mixed media collage painting—full of story, depth, and atmosphere.This process blends intention with spontaneity, and it’s always a surprise what emerges. Come see how one image, one plate, and a handful of paper layers become something truly special.** Video - Collaging Directly on the Gel Plate?

How I Turned a Gel Print Into a Stunning Mixed Media Collage FroyleArt 2025-06-21 | Today I’m taking the gel print collage I created in my previous video and transforming it into a finished mixed media painting on canvas. There’s something so satisfying about seeing the process come full circle—from the layered chaos of the gel plate to a beautifully composed piece of art.I begin by mounting the collage onto canvas, letting the textures and colours guide the next steps. To bring focus and storytelling into the piece, I add a gel print image transfer as the focal point—soft, slightly imperfect, and full of character. A few thoughtful touch-ups and small adjustments bring everything together, and just like that, the paintings are finished.This process is all about trusting the layers, allowing your materials to lead, and knowing when to stop. Each canvas holds its own quiet magic, built from moments of experimentation, colour, and intuition.** Digital Dissolved Nat Geo Collage Paper - froyleart.com/shop/p/dissolved-nat-geo-digital-paper** Video - Collaging Directly on the Gel Plate?

You Wont Believe How EASY It Is to Make a Collage Painting FroyleArt 2025-06-14 | The first 500 people to click my link or scan this QR code will receive 20% off their first year of Skillshare! https://skl.sh/froyleart06251Today I’m creating a beautiful gel print image transfer and turning it into a finished mixed media collage on canvas. We begin on the gel plate, where I pull a soft, layered image transfer that sets the tone for the entire piece. There’s something magical about that moment when the image lifts off the plate—it’s like uncovering a hidden story. Once the print is ready, I move to the canvas and begin building up the composition with my own hand-painted and hand-dyed tissue papers. The delicate layers add colour, movement, and texture, each one chosen intuitively to complement the mood of the transfer. The contrast between the transferred image and the soft, organic qualities of the tissue creates a beautiful visual harmony.This is where gel printing and collage come together, where structure meets spontaneity. Every element has its place, and yet there’s room for surprise along the way. I love how this piece came together—gentle, expressive, and full of texture.** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** My favourite art supplies that I use -Gelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gelli Arts 12 x 14” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/3LeKHluGel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oGel Elf - https://a.co/d/a5JklkbSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNDylusions Creative Journal Original (11.5 x 8”) - amzn.to/3P4nW1NDylusions Creative Journal Square - amzn.to/3vKS6Ac6 x 8” Concertina Accordion Style Journal - amzn.to/40oy11eYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7Horsdo Teabag Paper - amzn.to/3M8KqQ0Simon Hurley Metallic Lunar Paste - amzn.to/42BDT9WSimon Hurley Solar Paste Bundle - amzn.to/3WKagj1Liquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Copper - amzn.to/3AowjBbLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Bronze - amzn.to/3O6mxKMLiquitex Basics Quinacridone Magenta - amzn.to/3Cmc2NQLiquitex Basics Mars Black - amzn.to/3CeMm62Golden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZUGolden Fluid Alizarin Crimson Hue - amzn.to/3BMywavGolden Fluid Permanent Violet - amzn.to/3p0NwdCGolden Fluid Acrylic Quinacridone Magenta -amzn.to/3K5NtXpGolden Fluid Acrylic Paint - Titan Buff - amzn.to/45w0fs3Liquitex Heavy Body Muted Pink - amzn.to/3Ua9QlgLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Turquoise - amzn.to/3PXesZmLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Violet - amzn.to/4hlXZcULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Grey - amzn.to/3JjbBpOLiquitex Heavy Body Iridescent Rich Gold - amzn.to/3V30FSNLiquitex Iridescent Rose Gold - amzn.to/3z6GZGEAmsterdam Standard Pewter - amzn.to/46AXTtfAmsterdam Standard Bronze - amzn.to/3AeTkckAmsterdam Standard Copper - amzn.to/3WRqHugIzink Dye Spray Goldmine - amzn.to/3vRCrzjDina Wakley Gloss Spray Ruby - amzn.to/3LqksYnDina Wakley Gloss Spray Fuchsia -amzn.to/4koSsDUDina Wakley Gloss Spray Bundle of 12 - amzn.to/467e2p8Some of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

Collaging Directly on the Gel Plate? You’ve Got to Try This! FroyleArt 2025-06-07 | In today’s video, I’m pulling out some of my beautiful dissolved National Geographic pages and creating a full collage directly on the gel plate. This is one of my favourite experimental processes—it’s spontaneous, textured, and full of unexpected beauty. I start with a bold foundation using my newly released large 'Dance Moves' stencils, spraying through them with antique gold acrylic spray to create that rich, metallic detail on the plate. Then I layer in smaller handmade papers along with the dramatic, dreamy textures of the Nat Geo pages, building a surface that’s full of movement and depth.Once the collage layers are in place, I seal everything with a coat of gloss gel medium and pull the print using wet strength tissue—capturing all those elements in one single, satisfying pull. And of course, I couldn’t stop at just one. The second print turned out even better than the first—rich, detailed, and full of layered magic.If you’ve ever wondered how to combine collage and gel printing into a single process, this is a great one to try.

Watch This Painting Change Before Your Eyes FroyleArt 2025-06-02 | I almost threw this painting in the trash… but then everything changed. What started as a simple idea—adding paint over collage—quickly went wrong. The paint wasn’t transparent, the layers felt messy, and I was stuck.But instead of giving up, I pushed through. I kept layering, adjusting, and finally added a lotus flower stencil—a symbol of blooming through the mud.Sometimes the best art comes from the mess.More info: FroyleArt.comStep by step art classes on Skillshare & PatreonJoin my Facebook group and be empowered by community.Find more inspiration on instagram#CollageArt #MixedMediaShorts #KeepCreating #LotusSymbolism #CreativeProcess #ArtPepTalk #mixedmediapainting #mixedmediart
I Almost Threw This Painting Away… Then This Happened FroyleArt 2025-05-31 | Ever started a painting with a clear plan… and then everything changed? That’s exactly what happened to me today. I set out to add a layer of paint to this collage piece, hoping to let some of the background papers peek through with the help of clear medium. But the paint wasn’t as transparent as I expected—and things didn’t go to plan.I felt stuck, uncertain, and honestly… I almost threw the painting in the trash.But I didn’t. I kept going.Layer by layer, I worked through the challenges, made bold decisions, and slowly brought the piece to life. The final touch? A beautiful lotus flower stencil, symbolising how we can bloom through the mud—rising above creative blocks and inner doubt to find something strong, beautiful, and true.Alongside the painting process, I share a personal pep talk about what to do when your artwork feels off-track. This video is about more than just techniques—it’s about persistence, trust, and creative growth.** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers** Favourite Paper: Kozo Studio - https://kozo.studio/discount/FroyleArt10% Discount Code: FroyleArt** PM Artist Studio Stencils / Stamps - 10% discount with code - FROYLEFAN10My Stencils - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/stencils/designs-by-artist/froyle-davies-designs-by-artistMy Foam Stamps - pmartiststudio.com/product-category/foamstamps/designs-by-artist-foamstamps/froyle-davies** My favourite art supplies that I use -Gelli Arts 9 x 12” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/46AO2D2Gelli Arts 12 x 14” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/3LeKHluGel Elf - 16 x 20” Gel Printing Plate - amzn.to/4gcQ14oGel Elf - https://a.co/d/a5JklkbSpeedball Brayer 6” - amzn.to/3oZWac5Acrylic Chopping Boards - amzn.to/4iQj7ZkGlue - Liquitex Basics Matte Gel Medium - amzn.to/4kW7aTNDylusions Creative Journal Original (11.5 x 8”) - amzn.to/3P4nW1NDylusions Creative Journal Square - amzn.to/3vKS6Ac6 x 8” Concertina Accordion Style Journal - amzn.to/40oy11eYasutomo Hosho Paper Sketch Pad - amzn.to/3p2uEhCCarnival Papers Wet Strength White Tissue Paper - amzn.to/3CvaRL7Horsdo Teabag Paper - amzn.to/3M8KqQ0Liquitex Gloss Pouring Medium - amzn.to/3pjc6qhSimon Hurley Metallic Lunar Paste - amzn.to/42BDT9WSimon Hurley Solar Paste Bundle - amzn.to/3WKagj1Liquitex Acrylic Ink Muted Violet - amzn.to/3QrUKmqLiquitex Acrylic Ink White Pearl - amzn.to/3FwBogaLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Copper - amzn.to/3AowjBbLiquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Bronze - amzn.to/3O6mxKMLiquitex Basics Quinacridone Magenta - amzn.to/3Cmc2NQGolden Fluid Iridescent Bronze (Fine) - amzn.to/3w8tL7DGolden Fluid Iridescent Copper - amzn.to/3Ab09ZUGolden Fluid Alizarin Crimson Hue - amzn.to/3BMywavGolden Fluid Permanent Violet - amzn.to/3p0NwdCGolden Fluid Acrylic Quinacridone Magenta -amzn.to/3K5NtXpLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Pink - amzn.to/3Ua9QlgLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Turquoise - amzn.to/3PXesZmLiquitex Heavy Body Muted Violet - amzn.to/4hlXZcULiquitex Heavy Body Muted Grey - amzn.to/3JjbBpOLiquitex Heavy Body Iridescent Rich Gold - amzn.to/3V30FSNLiquitex Iridescent Rose Gold - amzn.to/3z6GZGESome of my products are affiliate links which provides a small commission for recommendations.

Exploring Culture and Identity in Collage: 100 Days of Collage - Class 9 Introduction FroyleArt 2025-05-26 | Welcome to the Studio it's Froyle here! I'm thrilled to invite you on an incredible journey of creative discovery. As a mixed media artist with over three decades of experience, I'm deeply passionate about two things: creating beautiful, opulent artworks and inspiring you to unleash your creativity. In this ninth chapter of our adventure—Exploring Culture & Identity in Collage—we’ll explore personal and global narratives, using materials, textures, and colours that symbolise the depth of human experience. Each collage becomes a piece of storytelling art that captures the essence of cultural heritage, self-discovery, and the connections that make us who we are.Skillshare Class Link - https://skl.sh/44hzPgbFirst month FREE!About the Class Art journaling creates a unique space for personal expression — a place where you can create freely, without judgment or outside expectations. In this section of the course, we’ll journey through Days 57 to 63, exploring the rich layers of identity, heritage, and personal vision through collage. We will create a series of seven collages that explore your cultural roots, personal identity, memories, and future dreams. Starting with Day 57: Ancestral Roots, you’ll honour your heritage by creating a collage that reflects your family history and cultural background. In Day 58: Patterns of The World, you’ll look outward, drawing inspiration from the patterns and motifs found in different cultures around the globe. Moving to Day 59: Self-Identity Map, you’ll turn inward, designing a “map” of yourself that tells the story of your journey and who you are today. Day 60: Textures of Home invites you to incorporate textures, colours, and items that remind you of home — whatever that word means to you. In Day 61: Portrait of Resilience, you’ll create a portrait collage, either of yourself or someone who represents resilience and strength in your life. With Day 62: Traditions & Memories, you’ll celebrate a tradition, memory, or holiday that holds personal or cultural significance. Finally, in Day 63: Vision For The Future, you’ll create a collage that captures how you see your cultural or personal identity evolving into the future.By the end of this project, you’ll have a meaningful collection of collages that celebrate where you’ve come from, who you are, and where you’re heading — a visual journal of your story.Who is this Class For?This class is all about how you respond to each prompt—there's no wrong way to create. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced artist, you’ll find plenty to inspire and challenge you. I’ll guide you step-by-step through every lesson, sharing the exact materials and techniques I use to help you achieve stunning results. For advanced creators, this class will push you to expand your artistic repertoire, using every tool in your creative toolkit.So, let’s gather our materials and create art that celebrates your culture and identity — together.** Find out more on my website - froyleart.com** Receive my newsletter for my favourite FREE Art Print ‘Above The Stormy Waters’ froyleart.com/free-print** Join me on Skillshare for more art classes - http://skl.sh/froyleFollow this link for the first month FREE** Join me on Patreon - patreon.com/froyleart** FroyleArt Fluid - youtube.com/@FroyleArt-Fluid ** Froyle Art Facebook - facebook.com/FroyleArt** Facebook Group - facebook.com/groups/238854774441805** Instagram - instagram.com/froyleart** New Scrap Bags Available - froyleart.com/shop/p/scrap-bag** My Digital Collage Papers - froyleart.com/shop/digital-collage-papers
