I love monoprints.  You get some lovely marks, giving the illusion of shadows in some places.  I can't wait to try this out on fabric.  Nos 9, 10 and 11 were done on tissue paper.  It doesn't show up very well in the photographs, but the marks are of a different quality and the background is finer.  Nos 12 and 13 were my newspaper pages covering the table.  I thought they were quite lovely!

  1. Your mono print marks are quite lovely. I learned how to mono print on fabric today in Jane Dunawold's Coupeville workshop! I need to practice not being so heavy handed with the amount of thickened dye to avoid blobs. Think I am going to like the technique.

  3. looking forward to doing more on fabric. I took a class with Jane at an SDA conference a few years ago, mostly using soy wax. I have also been rereading her books in collaboration with Claire Benn and Leslie Morgan.Donna and I are hoping to work through some of the exercises while in Contextural and have the great ACAD facilities.at our disposal.
