Gelli Arts as a Creative Meditative Practice

I Heart Gelli Arts!  What a wonderfully addictive process that, for me, is also healing and grounding. There is something that happens, while pulling Gelli Plate mono-prints, that centers me.  Creating Monoprints is a Creative Meditative Practice.

Gelli Arts Mode: Beyond Time and Space

When I am Rocking, in my Gelli Arts Mode, I lose track of time and surroundings outside my art space. I gain some kind of deep time creative focus, where I learn many discoveries in a compressed amount of time. Experiential learning at it’s best and most playful!

Breathe Deeper

I find myself breathing deeper when I’m using the Gelli Plate. Gelli Arts help me to combat stress. All things mono-printing are soothing for me, and at the same time, very joyful creative practices.

Letting Go

There is something addictive about this process, perhaps because it is generally so satisfying to move into a space of trust and openness. It feels good, letting expectations for a specific outcome go.  A kind of magic in mono-printing with Gelli Plates seems to bring out my inner child artist - The one who is willing to play, to experiment, to let go and embrace the mystery.

Embracing the Beautiful Mystery

I never quite know what the outcome of a Gelli Plate Print will be, and I don’t need to have an agenda, or an intricate plan to create something that often reveals itself as so unique and surprisingly beautiful.

And isn’t that what is so amazing about life? Isn’t it all that unexpected and astounding beauty and surprise that awaits us?  There is the opportunity with the Gelli Plate to Let Go and Let Beauty Happen! Much of the time it is beyond our complete understanding - that mystery that pulls us into creating, allowing, letting go, learning and growing.

as we pull Gelli Plate prints, Beauty Emerges. As long as we appreciate it and allow ourselves to be touched by it - We Are Honoring Our Artistic Nature as A Mindful Practice. Via Art We can Be moved, and Propelled forward, towards more of the mystery and beauty that emerges when mono-printing! 

embracing the blessings of Gelli Arts - and it’s ability to be a Creative Meditative Practice - Can Offer Us Freedom, Creativity, And Beauty, Over And Over Again, With Every Monoprint we pull. Enjoy Meditative Playfulness!
