Join Pam Porter for a one-day spring Gelli-Block Printing workshop focused on layered color, texture, and simple imagery inspired by the season. In this hands-on class, participants will create a series of original prints exploring spring themes such as flowers, plants, patterns, and organic forms using Pam’s signature Gelli-Block Printing process.

Gelli-Block Printing is a hybrid technique Pam developed as an accessible and creative way to combine colorful monoprinting with bold linoleum block printing. Using a soft gel plate, artists build layered backgrounds with paint, stencils, and mark-making. Once dry, carved linoleum blocks are inked and printed directly on top, creating a dynamic contrast between loose, colorful layers and crisp graphic imagery. Each print is strong, expressive, and one-of-a-kind.

Pam Porter is an artist and creativity coach based in Colorado who grew up in Santa Fe and continues to feel deeply connected to its creative community. 

All materials included, and all skill levels welcome.
