Also called: more fun with the gel plate.
I was using an odd sheet of paper to clean my roller as well as the gel plate after several uses. I ended up with this very light background which also shows the older paint lifting off in odd areas, which is kind of the point of the cleaning process. Here I have these random blue, pinkish patches. It cleaned the plate beautifully and I liked the sudden background sheet I was gifted. @Donna T knows what I'm talking about!
I honestly don't know what kind of paper it is - it's 8.5x11" which sounds like some cast off inkjet sheet that ended up in my scrap pile. I printed out the photo of this apartment building in South Beach, Florida with HIE (infrared) film, which gives the high contrast and the black sky. I brushed the scrap piece with gel medium and laid the printout face down, removing the paper backing after it dried.
For a throwaway paper, I kinda like it! Thanks for looking.
