I find constant inspiration in the beauty of God's creation. Very often this happens when I go image-hunting with my trusty camera.
A monotype print doesn't have repeatable elements. Every print is considered one-of-a-kind - a unique work of art, just like a unique painting.
Dark field monotypes are great for capturing the mysterious shadows that street lighting casts on urban cityscapes.
A monoprint is usually a variation on a series, as there is an image on the acetate substrate that can be printed multiple times over, in a variety of ways.
Other Scapes
Portraits and abstracts don't often get a look in with me but you never know what might happen in the future...watch this space!
Etchings
Coming to etching after years of pen and ink sketching, I loved the rich tones and textures I could get with aquatints.
