Gelli printing is a relatively new form of mono printing produced without a press and made possible by the invention of a mineral based reusable soft printing plate. The resulting one-off prints are richly layered and can be colourful or subtle depending on your choice. 
The soft sensitive surface allows detailed textures such as plants or woven fabrics to be replicated easily into your designs.  You will be shown many examples of the wide ranging possibilities of Gel plate mono printing before starting your own exploration. 
All possibilities will be fully demonstrated so you feel confident to produce many of your own prints in this experimental workshop. Help will be given when needed to make sure you learn and are able to take away the skills necessary to continue this great form or printing in your own time.

Gelli Printmaking Workshop

N5 workshops is an inspirational environment.  All materials are laid out for you to use and the course starts with a short presentation from Armi explaining how to do gelli printing.  Numbers are kept small so there is plenty of time for Armi to give everyone the time they need. Armi is very friendly and helpful and has many years of experience teaching Art. Experience varies amongst the group but you will meet like minded people who are all very interesting and enthusiastic about learning the skill. At the end of the day I was very proud to take home some lovely prints and I will definitely sign up for some more workshops.  Added to this delicious refreshments served in a beautiful environment.

This was a really fun morning held in beautiful surroundings. Armi gave us a series of demonstrations and then let us play with the paints, using our own stencils or ones from her studio stash. It was a quick and affordable introduction to gelli printmaking.

Lotte Lina Kaiser

Armi runs her Gelli Printmaking workshop in an environment that could not possibly be more inspiring. She opens up her atelier for the participants, and allows her guests to access her vast collection of most extraordinary creative printing items. Armi’s stunning garden serves as further inspiration and creative source for further printing material, and delicious home baked cakes or biscuits help the participants to stay energised.  To set the scene, Armi presents interesting techniques and examples to inspire, then helps the participants to access the world of Gelli print making with creative warm up exercises, before the guests are then let loose to create with no limit to imagination. Fantastic experience!!!

Deb Worthington

Really enjoyed it. Love to do another . Thank you Armi. 

Esther P 

I attended a gelli print workshop this morning and I just wanted to say thank you to Amri who ran the work shop, I had a wonderful time. I hadn’t really done any print making since my art A level course many years ago and it was great to try my hand at a new technique and to reconnect with my creative side! Amri made the whole experience extremely relaxed and enjoyable, and her encouragement and enthusiasm really helped our group along. And I just have to say that I don’t think we could have attended a workshop in a more beautiful setting. I could have easily spent the whole day there. Fantastic. 

Caroline Case

We had a wonderful morning making and creating gelli prints . Armi was a great teacher , inspiring and gave thoughtful tips to ensure we all got the most of the morning . It was a beautiful and tranquil location and we were all so absorbed that time flew by . I will come back and would highly recommend the workshop . 

Georgina

Spent a lovely morning experimenting with gelli printing to create beautiful designs. Armi gave us lots of inspiration and carefully taught us how to make some lovely pieces to take away. Totally absorbing in a serene atmosphere. I would definitely recommend a very enjoyable course. 

Seana Mallen

Everything about no5 workshops exceeds your expectations. 

Armi is a lovely,  friendly and welcoming teacher and wonderful artist.
She is incredibly informative, generous and clear in sharing her expertise from her vast experience of printmaking technique. 

She has so many creative ideas and heaps of interesting materials, Stencils, flowers, & all sorts of found unexpected textures to print with. 
She also has a variety of papers and fabrics to print on, and she encourages you to experiment with anything you like.

Clearly Armi has been teaching for years; her preparation and organization are so professional it makes the whole workshop (which could be quite chaotic and messy!) flow seamlessly. 

We were a very mixed group, from a professional artist to a complete beginner, and everyone produced work that they were really happy with.

And then, the icing on the cake, is that all of this takes place in her stunning studio and garden, which  looks ready to be photographed by architectural digest! 

Everything about the day was a treat!

If you have a chance to work with this inspiring artist in this gorgeous space, don’t  hesitate.
 I’ll definitely be going back!

Claudia Dart

A whistlestop tour through Gelli printmaking, with opportunities to try a wide range of techniques.  Great afternoon, lovely setting and fantastic tea and cake! Thanks, Armi, for a really enjoyable session.

Anne Roberts

Excellent workshop. Beautiful setting, superb tutor and the wide selection of resources made this a perfect learning environment. We made a range of prints. And the cake was outstanding.

Maiia

No5workshops is a fantastic space to spend few creative hours in! Loved every moment!

Dhurka

Variety of techniques using gelli pad learnt. Relaxed, friendly atmosphere throughout for a friends birthday. Armi was attentive and helpful, and was able to cater for a range of different artistic capabilities. Thoroughly enjoyed and would love to go back!

Rosie Allen

The perfect way to spend a winter afternoon! Armi is inspiring and encouraging and even as a hesitant novice, I managed to produce something pleasing and interesting. Lovely studio and welcome tea and biscuits. Altogether highly recommend. 

Juliet  Boucher

A great opportunity to learn something new in a beautiful and laid back setting. Armi was inspiring  and encouraging.

Penny Carter

Such an inspiring workshop!
I attended with my mum and sister and all three of us had such a wonderful and creative time.  Armi is so friendly and helpful and such a beautiful, caring, and welcoming person.  
The workshop was very relaxed and it was easy to create little pieces of art.  Even if you do not think that you would be very good, Armi shows you that you can be very creative and is helpful throughout.
There were lots of different types of paper and cards to use and so many interesting items to use for printing.
Armi and her husband are so kind to open up their beautiful home and garden not only for classes (with a delicious homemade cake and tea included too) but for the NGS charity (highly recommended as well).
I can 100% say with confidence that you will have a great time and you will not regret taking one of Armi's workshops - they are so inspiring.  We will be back for sure.
Thank you so much Armi, see you again soon x

Giuseppina  Lavelli

I really enjoyed the gelli printing workshop. Armi is very welcoming and helpful. 

Ashley Cotechini

What an amazing experience. From the moment my mum and I step through the door we were welcomed like guests. The atmosphere was perfect for creativity and Armi’s teaching strategies and creative techniques left us feeling successful and excited.  We were provided with all equipment and endless amounts of materials to best suit our desired outcome. I would highly recommend Armi’s workshops for any teachers, couples, friends or individuals who want to learn a new process and spend time in a truly unique space. I can’t wait for the next workshop.

Jacqueline Marshman

The most amazing afternoon. A fabulous host in a wonderful setting teaching us novices how to create gelli prints. I came away with some lovely prints and then bought myself the basic equipment to start my own creations.  
I would thoroughly recommend no5 workshops, Armi and her cake!  I hope to visit again soon. 

Angus Smith

Great teacher in a beautiful studio...it felt very easy-going Armi made everyone feel at home!

Luka

The workshop was fun, informative, experimental and a brilliant way to spend the day! Armi was so knowledgeable and I have left the workshop with a stream of new ideas and tips on how to do gelli printing. The venue is absolutely stunning and a joy to be in her studio space. Handmade cake really was delicious too!

Jayne Ward

I had a lovely 3 hours in Armi's inspirational studio - she is an enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and patient tutor and the surroundings are stunning - a great way to spend an afternoon .

Fiona Helyer

I had such a lovely time.  A really great workshop! I came away with a big pile of prints, a good understanding of how to do a gelli plate print and with some ideas of what to try next.  Armi provided so many paints, stencils, leaves and textures to use!  Armi was extremely knowledgable and patient and also a lovely host! A great afternoon!

Shu Fun Wong

I thoroughly enjoyed the gelli printmaking workshop I did with Armi recently. Instructions were clear and there was a vast selection of tools/materials to use. She was a very patient and graceful teacher. We had plenty of time to experiment with printing ideas and she was relaxed about us overrunning our 3 hour slot. Armi's studio and garden is absolutely beautiful and I felt honoured to be welcomed in.  During a break, we enjoyed tea and a delicious homemade cake. I'd fully recommend Armi's workshops and look forward to joining another one in future.

Carolyn King

Great workshop in a fabulous studio. 
Lots of resources & one to one guidance. 
All in a super friendly fun atmosphere   Thank you. I will be back. 

Elaine O'Connor

Really inspiring and well-led workshop set in a beautiful and peaceful environment, amongst a small group. Armi is a highly-experienced teacher and practising artist, whose encouragement and clear explanations make you want to take gelli printing further. Highly recommended.

Paula White

Fantastic experience. I would definitely recommend these workshops, a lovely environment with a studio in a beautiful garden. Armi is a superb teacher. I had a birthday workshop with Armi which was very inspiring. The techniques are practical at home without a printing press, so a great intro to some very accessable techniques. 

Lyndsey Ellis

I loved the Gelli printing workshop. An afternoon spent playing with a variety of paint colours, textures, and graphic stencils was a lot of fun. Armi is an excellent teacher and her home studio and garden an inspiration in itself. 

Lyndsey

I absolutely loved the gelli print workshop and was so happy with my final products. Armi was a great teacher and the whole afternoon was just lovely :)

Millie Sensecall

We had an amazing afternoon. We learnt so much, Armi is a brilliant teacher; sharing her extensive knowledge - the time absolutely flew by.  The setting is absolutely gorgeous and the  tea break and snacks Armi provided were a real treat. Will be booking another workshop soon! 

Deborah

What a fabulous setting for this really engaging workshop. Armi gave us so many ideas and her work around the room was very inspiring. She was very generous with her information, allowing us to take photos and make notes along the way. This is so important when it comes to consolidating all that learning and remembering the many future possibilities.   I do hope to return for another workshop and highly recommend my experience to others. 

susan hodgson

Firstly Armi’s house, garden and studio are wonderful, what a place to spend three happy hours.
Armi is kind and helpful, sharing her immense knowledge, she provided everything we could possibly need, and more.
We learned so much, and did a variety of activities. The possibilities are endless. Everyone came away with beautiful creations, full of ideas to continue.
 Also coffee and delicious cake 🍰. 
If you want to experience three hours of joy, join one of Armi’s workshops. Thank you Armi.

Julia Ruxton

I went to a gelli printing class and it  was very well organised with masses of information clearly conveyed in a short space of time without feeling daunting.  Armi had lots of resources ready for us both for inspiration and use (stencils, masks, a huge variety of things for making marks in the paint as well as different types of medium and loads of different substrates to try) and she happily picked leaves from her beautiful garden as well. She is a great teacher (and artist) and there was a lovely atmosphere -  I think all 6 participants would say we had a wonderful time. There was space to learn from each other and review what we were all doing while we had a break for coffee and a delicious home-made cake.  The studio is fabulous - it's almost worth going just to see the house and garden!  It is also only a 20 minute walk from the train station - a bus would get you even closer so easily accessible without a car.

Sophie Bailey

I was hoping to get my creative mojo back with this 3 hour session after a long time away from printmaking and Armi's workshop didn't disappoint! Such an inspiring setting and a lovely approach to teaching which made all gelli-printing novices completely feel at ease! There was no pressure, lots of creative freedom, fantastic resources and mouthwatering cake. I'm so grateful for such a lovely session and just wish it could have lasted all day! 

Susannah Reilly

Armi’s gelli printing workshop was brilliant- she’s so knowledgeable and a great teacher. I also loved how she set us students free with a wealth of paints and materials to experiment with and express ourselves! Would absolutely do it again!

Philippa Hayes

What a lovely way to spend a creative few hours. Armi makes you feel very welcome and at ease in her beautiful home and studio. I was new to gel printing and she explained the process clearly and patiently. She certainly made me want to explore this more. And there was cake!

Carol Edgar

Had a lovely gelliplate workshop recently in Armi’s amazing studio. Everything was provided  (including coffee and scrumptious home made cake) and I learned so much.  Armi was very knowledgable and clear.  Brilliant starting point. Thanks Armi

Lindy Dumas

Great printing session. Easy to understand and follow. Huge amount of resources and lots of ideas suggested. Wonderful cake!

Sally Doyle

Thoroughly enjoyable course with everything provided and a fantastic venue. Armi is a great teacher, full of ideas, helpful and patient, and I left feeling so much more confident to try out gelli printing on my own. Thank you Armi.

Lucy Winnicott

Brilliant workshop! Armi was very informative and we had lots of time for making/experimenting with the gelli plates. Would highly recommend, will be doing one of Armi's other workshops soon.

Mono Printmaking Workshop

I absolutely loved this class, Armi was the most charming and comprehensive of teachers.Her studio is stunning and with the addition of the most delicious handmade cake shared during the break, she made us feel totally at home.I would highly recommend this course, I came away feeling totally inspired.

A class on both mono printing and gelli printing. Armi was very informative and friendly. The venue was gorgeous and the cake was great. Perfect size class with just 6 of us. Armi was very kind in making sure that my daughter didn’t feel out of her depth.

Armi’s class was great - we learned lots of different printing techniques - it was very hands on and experimental, and great for keen artists or complete beginners. Everyone came out with lots of lovely prints at the end. The studio is beautiful and fantastically equipped. I’d recommend this to anyone for a creative, inspiring way to spend an afternoon.

I attended this class with my two nieces and nephew and we came away absolutely buzzing with excitement! It was a great class and Armi is a fantastic teacher. We learnt something really fun and new but also came away infused with confidence and full of ideas, plus handfuls of artwork to show off. 
Armi was incredibly welcoming and started off the lesson with a few drawing exorcises that got us going and gave us tonnes of confidence to start creating prints straight away. I've never done anything like this before and at the ripe old age of forty something discovered that I'm not actually so terrible at drawing after all! 
The young ones (teen's) had so much fun and declared it the 'best Christmas present ever'. My nephew showed his work to his art teacher at school who was most impressed and has been told that he can include it in his GCSE art portfolio. He has declared that printing his favourite medium.
What more can I say? It was utterly brilliant, the setting was perfect and inspiring, Armi has the dream studio and it was an utter pleasure spending a few hours in there. 
Nothing compares to the generosity of those who share their knowledge and build confidence in other people; thank you Armi.  :O)

A fantastic & inspiring workshop from Armi! We had a wonderful morning doing some initial drawing exercises followed by a well demonstrated lesson in creating mono prints. Armi showed us a small powerpoint & lots of samples to give us inspiration before we started creating! She has an extremely well stocked supply of exciting papers & ephemera that we were able to use in our designs. The studio is absolutely gorgeous, with generous space to work in. Combine all that with some amazing cake & coffee.....just a wonderful creative morning! Can't recommend it enough!

A brilliant workshop.  We learned so much in such a short space of time,  I was really pleased with my mini mono prints.   The studio is absolutely stunning, the most beautiful I have ever seen - well equipped, light and totally inspiring to work in.   The homemade cake was such a personal and delicious touch too.  Thank you Armi, I am booking my next workshop now.

We had such a lovely workshop with Armi in her beautiful studio! Thank you for a great workshop. I will be booking onto your Lino workshop too!!! I am also an artist teacher and it was great for me to go along and be in a class where I could draw and print. Thanks Armi

Armi is an excellent teacher, very friendly,  really well-prepared and informative, supportive and inspiring. Her studio is a delightful space full of light, and with enough space for each of the 5pf us to have our own work Station with rollers and inks and papers, etc.

She provided everything we needed to make a number of mono prints using several different techniques,. She had prepared lots of beautiful pressed flowers and grasses that we rolled up and printed as a fantastic array of materials to create textures and colours , drawers full of collage papers and various treasures. She has clearly been collecting all this stuff for years and is so generous to share  it with us.
And there’s coffee and cake!
My only complaint would be that 2 1/2 hours flew past and I didn’t want to leave.
I would definitely encourage anyone, beginners of practicing artists , to enjoy a session with Armi in her stunning studio. You won’t be disappointed.

This was a great fun introduction to mono printing. We had the run of Armi's beautiful studio, which is a totally inspirational space in itself, and had lots of opportunity to play with the different techniques that Armi showed us. The only disappointment was how short the session was, as by the time I was getting to grips with the possibilities it was time to pack up. I could have gone on all day!

Armi packed a great deal into a couple of hours which flew by in her perfect studio, filled with light, a true creative space. I learned loads despite being a lifelong dabbler, was so absorbed I had no idea I'd fingerprinted my face thoroughly. Superb instruction, felt able to experiment. Totally achieved what I wanted, which is to revive the creative process, get the itchy fingers back. Job done, but will be back for more classes as a springboard to get back in the groove.

Marcia summers

Learnt to lino print using reduction technique. Excellent teacher and fabulous workshop facilities

Mono Printing Workshop

Fantastic experience!! During this workshop in her fabulous studio, Armi leads the participants into the world of mono printmaking via light warm up printing exercises, great technical explanations and inspiring examples. There is ample of time to just enjoy the flow and create work independently with Armi’s support and creative guidance. Participants were surprised and stunned by the work produced by themselves as the process contains so many elements of unplanned beautiful surprise effects. Armi’s own enthusiasm about printing is absolutely infectious, and only adds to the wonderful printing experience!

Sue Glasgow

Brilliant workshop! Excellent teaching and introduction to mono printing. Amri is just wonderful full of inspiring methods which comes from a huge knowledge of printing processes. All students were incredibly engaged and interested and supportive of each other’s creative ‘masterpieces’ ;-) Great fun worth every penny, the best way to start your day. 

Paula Dale

I came home today from Armi's Mono-printing workshop with a spring in my step, a big smile on my face and bursting with inspiration and motivation to carry on exploring!  Armi's home was beautiful , her studio is what we all dream of having and she was relaxed and clear in her instruction. It was a well-needed reminder , not only of mono-printing as a technique but of how to freely experiment with materials  & pattern like I used to in those art college days. I could easily have spent the rest of the day there to continue  so I will definitely be going back! I'm excited to get back to my desk tomorrow and carry on.... Thankyou Armi and everyone else who was there today!

Padmaparna Ghosh

It was a privilege to be let into Armi's outstanding studio and garden. I learnt a lot, several techniques, in a very short time. Yet, it didn't feel quite rushed. If you are interested in expanding your imagination into printing, and try some abstraction of your ideas. Thanks Armi, and thank you for the cake and coffee. 

Alison Horn 

The afternoon was  spent learning about mono printing . We were shown by the lovely Armi how to use different techniques and media. It was such a relaxing afternoon. Armi was the perfect teacher and I would definitely attend another of her courses. 

Mono printing is a great form of printmaking for beginners and seasoned practitioners - accessible and immediate, you will produce prints easily once shown how.

Several finished prints and your plate will be yours to take home. . Bring any visual inspiration or be inspired by many ideas when you get here. You may get messy so don't wear your best clothes! I will provide an apron and gloves. Bring a packed lunch, teas coffees and cake provided!

I had such a lovely time at Armi's Lino Printing workshop. It had been a while since I had done this process and she went through everything and demonstrated each stage of the process. The facilities are great and the home made cake too!

Susie May

The setting for the course is inspirational and the workshop is very user friendly with all tools and materials readily at hand to use as needed.  I had never seen this media being used before so I was a complete novice. The course starts with a short powerpoint presentation covering the key aspects of the skill and then Armi shows everyone how to get started and you're off. The numbers were small enabling Armi to give all members of the course exactly what they need throughout the day. If you get stuck or need to be shown something again or if you need inspiration Armi is at hand to help you along. By the end of the day I had produced some really lovely prints and also learnt how to stitch some of the prints into a little booklet. We stopped for a delicious lunch. In addition to what I learnt and took home (feeling very pleased with myself) I also met some lovely people who were on the course too. All in all a brilliant day out!

Really enjoyed the lino printing class. Something I've wanted to try for ages. We were shown how to achieve really good prints to bring home at the end. Everything provided including loads of choices of paper to print on. Delicious cake too and all in a beautiful workshop. A brilliant morning- thank you!

Lino Print Workshop

Emma Ellins

Four girlfriends and I had the most wonderful evening together with Armi!! We made some great prints and inspired to do more. It was such an informative and creative evening, whilst being very informal and fun. Thank you so much!!! I cannot recommend more highly

Sophie

Truly brilliant workshop I only wish it could have lasted all day. Armi’s studio is beautiful and well stocked with wonderful materials; she is a creative, kind and inspirational teacher. And the cake was delicious. I learnt a huge amount and now feel confident to undertake my own Lino printing projects.

Marcia Williams

This workshop was outstanding.  We all loved it and were inspired by the tutor and quality of teaching and support.  My only possible negative would be that it wasn't quite long enough to absorb a new skill and felt rather rushed at the end - in spite of the tutor's willingness to go into overtime!  But even so – a wonderful experience.

 Lino Print Workshop

Jen Ritchie 

Armi was so friendly and welcoming. She taught us all sorts of useful tips, had time for each of us and gave us lots of inspiring ideas. We learned about different techniques of drawing, then how to carve out in different ways on the link itself. We also learned how to print on different papers. The venue is simply fantastic. An incredible workshop space in the garden at the back of Armi’s property. Truly superb. Armi also fed us a delicious chocolate cake and tea! It was a wonderful way to spend a few hours with friends. I’d be very happy to do it again! 

Camilla

Absolutely brilliant. Armi provides the space, the equipment, the inspiration, the guidance, support and the techniques so that everyone makes something really beautiful; and has a lot of fun in the process.  I would love to go again.

Clare Quamina

This is a very interesting workshop as Lino printing can be daunting ;  initial drawings, cutting tools , techniques, but Armi takes you through the whole process with clarity, excellent visual resources and patience!
I particularly enjoyed seeing how Chine Colle can be used simply and how pops of colour can give real energy to the black and white prints.
Armi's studio is superbly equipped and laid out and everyone was delighted with their work. 


chrissy silver

The venue was fabulous, super organised and Armi was wry welcoming and friendly.
I learned more than I expected in the time given and was inspired by the many samples of past students work on a slide show plus Armi’s own work in the walls! 
In addition Armi provided a fabulous cake and tea or coffe, so I came away worth a number of prints which I am very pleased with, having had a lovely fun afternoon! Thank you Armi! 

Gareth

A welcoming atmosphere in beautiful surroundings with insightful teaching of the art of lino printing.  The subject matter of line and form in nature was a perfect inspiration for creating a template.  The time flew by as we were led into the process of printing using various papers and printing presses.  It has inspired me to continue at home. 

Nicole Line

I had such a lovely time in Armi’s Lino Print workshop. It was held on a Sunday afternoon in her incredible studio in East Molsey, down the road from Hampton Court Palace. As a new mummy  (baby 4 months old) it was the perfect workshop to ease me back into being creative again. It was a fun and relaxing class with access to lots of materials and images for inspiration…. Not to mention the homemade cake too! See you again very soon for another (baby free) workshop!!

Beatrix

Fabulous workshop!  Beautiful surroundings adorned with amazing natural found objects to provide inspiration and relaxing background music. We were encouraged to experiment, and I surprised myself with my freehand drawing  I was delighted with my finished print and the variety of methods we explored. Would definitely recommend! Thank you!
