FOUR IN THE MORNING


I woke up early one morning and could not get back to sleep. Instead of laying in bed, staring up at the ceiling, I went downstairs and tried something new. This is a monoprint I finished in just over an hour. Monoprints are made by painting an image on a sheet of either metal or plastic (in this case, plastic) and then running it through a press with paper. You only get one print (sometimes a second 'ghost' print is possible) thus the name 'Monoprint'.
