Watching Froyle on the Big Screen!

Watching Froyle on the Big Screen!

The big screen is a large tv from my friend, Laura. We love You Tube art and craft videos, and when we’re at my house, in the den/study, we’ve been watching on a very small tv. We might as well set up an iPad.

Froyle is Froyle Davies, the first gel print artist that I ever watched. She turns her gel prints into fantastic collages!

She is a joy to watch! She is animated and full of laughter. Her New Zealand accent is icing on the cake.

I watched this episode first, today.

She compared three weights of Gelelf’s new image transfer papers.

They all worked beautifully.

This was an image of her lovely daughter.

To learn how to transfer images onto the gel plate, be sure to watch this episode. Warning: she makes it look easy. It’s not! I’ve had two successful image transfers. I’ll share them another time.

I’m going to try, again, and send you all good wishes if you decide to give it a go!

Today, I accompanied my husband to Moh’s surgery. An old motorcycle burn on his lower leg left a scar that turned into a squamous cell sarcoma. It presented as a white scaly patch the size and shape of a silver dollar. The surgeon got it all first cut. Still, that and a trip to the pharmacy took most of the day.

I did get home in time to catch Karen McKoy’s live stream. Karen is an artist who is also a grief counselor. Her art channel is called, Slapping Paint on Paper

I found her through friends in the chat of PMartist Studio. Her words of wisdom have been invaluable to me, and I am grateful.
