Prints

Monoprints, woodblock and more

Woodblock Monoprints

My collections of monoprints are created from a library of woodblock and etching plates.  Each print is different in its overlapping and combining of plates, as well as it’s colors and ink density. I love watching how the plates interact with one another and change as they are paired with different plates in different colors. The more plates on a monoprint the more difficult the print is, with more chances for a stray mark, a mis-registered plate or simply a bad overlap. Some prints can have up to 12 plates interacting and engaging with one another.

See currently available Monoprints here in my shop or at Art & Light Gallery.

Large Monoprints

Large Monoprints are printed by hand on beautifully thin yet durable Mulberry paper. This handmade Japanese paper is almost translucent in its appearance, yet it is well-known for its strong fibers. Hand printing with a barren requires a thinner paper to pull a strong print, so mulberry paper is perfect.

Medium Monoprints

Midsized Monoprints are usually printed on Rives BFK paper in a soft natural white. These prints are printed on my trusty press, taking multiple trips through as I overlap plates and colors and build the composition.

Small Monoprints

Small Monoprints (10inches or under) are usually printed on Rives BFK paper in a soft natural white. These prints are printed on my trusty press, taking multiple trips through as I overlap plates and colors and build the composition.
