As you said, to work on a plate instead of clean white paper. <br />I really like this piece. the roughness, and the ... primitive feel of your marks. Oh, I can see how you would get lost in doing more and more of these. :)Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051980478832038967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-374850929419683725.post-53596484884768664692017-02-15T11:33:21.906-07:002017-02-15T11:33:21.906-07:00Good morning Dotty!

I will post more info - have had some other questions about pigment, etc. Not sure if I will continue working on this one. It is a little rough around some of the edges but it does have a certain appeal - or for me it does - and it is a 'print'. I have gone back in and worked back into other prints done this way - added some image transfer, made some details a little crisper. Really a personal preference. Good to hear from you.Janet Bradishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191437039583701400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-374850929419683725.post-686447033251011282017-02-15T11:24:50.181-07:002017-02-15T11:24:50.181-07:00Thanks Judith.

I like what doesn't print as well as what does and really like the colors you used in this one. Do you pull any ghosts? Also have you gone back in and enhanced a print? Oh yes, sorry, to as so many questions, but when you let the plate dry do you rewet it or just let the wet of the paper pull it off?Nelviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270512609434415587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-374850929419683725.post-45447333485266715492017-02-15T03:16:55.686-07:002017-02-15T03:16:55.686-07:00Janet, what fun to wake up and see how a monoprint...Janet, what fun to wake up and see how a monoprint gets made. Well, really, to see you YOU made YOUR monoprint. I got to go to your studio and watch everything unfold before my eyes. Grand adventure! What kind of pigments do you use? Loved that part of the rounding-up of supplies included rounding up both sides of your brain. Love your pointing out that the rinse-it-off-and-start-again nature of working on the plate has big appeal for you in monoprinting. Will you continue working with this print?dotty seiter: now playinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996945853595200200noreply@blogger.com
