How Can You Use Gelatos?
The beauty of Gelatos is their extraordinary versatility. Here are just some of the ways artists use them:
Scrapbooking and card making: Apply directly to paper, blend with a sponge, and create beautiful background washes, borders, and accents. The acid-free formula means your creations will last without fading or yellowing.
Watercolour effects: Activate the pigment with water and a brush to create stunning watercolour-style washes on paper or canvas. The results are rich, luminous, and completely unique.
Mixed media art journals: Layer Gelatos over gesso, stamps, stencils, and collage elements to build depth and texture in art journal pages.
Fabric and textile art: Gelatos can be used on fabric (heat-set for permanence), opening up a whole world of wearable art and textile decoration.
Children's art projects: The creamy, easy-to-blend formula is perfect for older children and teenagers exploring art — safe, non-toxic, and endlessly fun.
Stamping and stencilling: Apply to a stamp or through a stencil for crisp, colourful impressions on paper, wood, or canvas.
