Perforated Prints – experimental Printmaking

2010, mixed media printmaking, relief prints / /

Today I moved through the fears of not making prints that matter or that are good enough. I experimented with some gelatin prints that I had cropped down to a small book size. I used the sewing machine to draw lines of light. This monotype to the right is printed on both sides and can be viewed from both sides.
