What is the Gel Printers Summit?


A virtual gathering of artists

The Gel Printers Summit (GPS) is a worldwide online event where leading gel plate artists share their favorite techniques and approaches. It’s designed for artists of all levels who want to sharpen their skills and spark new ideas.

Your first pull to advanced layers

GPS25 features 14 pre-recorded lessons (30–45 minutes each), taught by different artists. Lessons move from beginner-friendly to advanced, so you can build skills and discover fresh ways to develop your own style.

Learn forever– not just for two weeks

Enroll once and get lifetime access to every video lesson— watch at your own pace, anytime.

Wondering if Gel Printers Summit
is right for you?

- - - - - - - - - -

Maybe you can relate to one of the following:

Self-doubt

You love pulling prints but sometimes wonder if your results are “good enough” or if you’re missing something others know.

Just starting out

You’re new to gel plate printing and you want clear guidance, tips, and next steps so you can feel confident using your plate.

Overwhelm

With so much noise in the world, it’s tough to focus. You want your printing time to feel like a creative reset, not another stress.

No time for art

Your gel plate sits unused for weeks because life keeps getting in the way.

Feeling stuck

You’ve tried the same techniques over and over, and your prints all look alike. The thrill just isn’t there anymore.

Creative isolation

Gel printing is fun, but doing it alone can feel lonely. You crave feedback, fresh ideas, and people who get it.


A creative outlet and supportive community can help you recharge, process, and find the calm you need to tap into your creativity again.

Gel Printers Summit is here for you!

GPS is designed to help you grow as an artist, explore new techniques, and reconnect with your creativity.
