Piecing Monotype Prints together

Monotypes – papers with potential – Linda Germain

I make lots of monotype prints.  I consider them papers with potential.  You could look at them a imperfect prints and failures.  But I prefer to see:

  • opportunities for learning
  • fun in the afternoon with no pressure to produce and
  • foundations for more printing

This mixed media print above started out as several monotypes pulled on the gelatin plate.  Then I piece them together, added the figures with soft carve relief stamps and then topped it off with some random stitching.

What do you see possibilities or problems?  What would you like to see?

If you see possibilities, then you may be interested in the next session of Make Monotypes.  It is a 6 week online printmaking course.  Check out the details.  Registration is going to open May 7th.  This class fills up fast.
