STORM BREWING


I worked on this 'Monoprint' for about three hours. This type of print is created by painting and inking the design onto a sheet of plastic, then working the design with tools such as cut up credit cards, cotton swabs and painting knives. A sheet of Japanese print paper was then placed on the plastic and run through the print press. It is a challenging process as you never quite know what the result is going to be. The composition didn't work for me here, but I do like some of the effects that were obtained!

KEEP ON TRYING


Another recent etching attempt. It is supposed to be a dragonfly hovering around a sprig of flowers. Okay, work with me here. Use your imagination!!!
