Not JUST Monoprinting - this is a process with endless possibilities for creative mark making, gestural and painterly impressions, and exciting ways to build up layers, colour and texture. Although each print is unique in itself there is the potential to make a varied edition of prints. Monoprinting can be used with other printmaking processes and applied to or incorporated with existing works on paper or fabric. There are many ways to make a monoprint from rolling, wiping, stenciling, deleting, adding, offsetting and layering.
