Here's some late-evening gelatin plate printing with leaves just picked--ferns, wild geranium, wild rose--and some orange plastic fence material. I make my own gelatin plate with gelatin, glycerin and water and store it in the refrigerator, though I have read it is shelf-stable. I leave it in the cookie sheet for easy portability.
I'm enjoying printing leaves for as long as they last, and then will have to move to inorganic objects--washers, keys, fence material, sequin waste, cheesecloth. There are possibilities for all seasons...
