Monotypes are paintings on smooth acrylic plates transferred to paper once only using a manual press.  Each unique impression unites the spontaneity of painting with the radiant qualities of ink imbedded in the fibers of paper. Monotype reveals and informs, narrating a beginning, middle and end of a personal narrative. 

Explore contemporary monotype techniques using spontaneous painting and drawing approaches and modified oil base inks. The possibilities are endless and provocative. Glistening layers of radiant ink create unique personal images with depth, mystery, memory and intrigue. Brayer painting, litho transfer imagery, chine colle and direct drawing monotype will be investigated, as well as quirks and oddities in nature. Bring resource images or sketches to class.
