Hello Elizabeth, I have been watching many of your videos for a month now. I just love them. I am not an artist, but started dabbling in paints and using the gelli plate. I absolutely love it and really appreciate your many tutorial tidbits. They are so awesome and I have learned a lot. I'm older in my 60's, but I love discovering my creative side after all these years. I purchased some of your stencils and hope to buy some of your rubber stamps too. Thank you so much. You are very talented.

Well come Jude and thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice compliment!

Just a little tip that has saved me from the same frustrating situation with paint dried on a foam stamp. Alcohol will break down acrylic paint. I have actually been successful removing some spots on my clothes this way. I usually put in in an old spray bottle and spritz it on the stamp and let it sit till the paint starts to get soft and wipe it. Sometimes it takes a few times but eventually I can remove enough for it to work again. Hope this helps.

@ElizabethStHilaire

Thanks! I just make sure that the paint does not dry on the surface :-) I find that to be the easiest way, prevention. But yes, you can also use hand sanitizer as its primary ingredient is rubbing alcohol.

To be more environmentally safe, you can let your rinse water sit overnight and let the residue sink to the bottom of the container. Pour off the water out onto the ground and let the solids dry out. Throw out the clump and reuse the container.

@ElizabethStHilaire

When I was trained by Golden Paints they suggested using a 5 gallon bucket with one bag of sandbox sand. Poor the paint water into the bucket and sit it in the sun, somewhere it can dry. The paint solids will be trapped in the sand, and the water will evaporate. This way absolutely no paint goes into the ground. :-)

I have loved watching your videos, and I am looking forward to taking a class with you in the near future. I cannot wait to try this process and check out these paints. I wanted to suggest that when you use paper towels to clean up, if you are using a sturdy roll like Costco or Viva, I wipe my paint messes or extra paint with the paper towel, and then when I am done with a color, or for the session, I water down the acrylic paints on the pallet, and soak the paper towels in it, similar to how you brush on the water downed paint, and I use the dried paper towels as collage papers, which adds a nice texture to the work! paint stays out of the drain and landfill. win-win.

I wondered, as I watched the end of the video, if you had ever put sheets of rice paper under the sheets that are drying. I think you would get some very interestingly patterned papers by doing that. I'm going to get some rice paper so I can try this technique and try the idea of the sheets underneath.

One way is to let paints on the cloths dry, and then reuse until it’s ‘painted’ all over and dried again and again like layers. You can then wash or dampen to reuse since the dry acrylics will not come off. Saves papers and not polluting the water system. Just sharing useful tips I learned from other artists.
