Large scale monotype explorations..................

 .....on 18x 24 watercolor paper using Golden Open acrylic paint on a 16x20 gel plate.

Oil paint monotypes.......

 on Bristol paper.  Created using the Dan Tirels' style of applying paint to a plastic sheet and flipping it over onto the paper.  I am addicted to this style of monotyping (or monoprinting depending on the process).

Wheel throwing.............

 

........garden totems bits and bobs.

Freshly Rakued Crow-Kin.........

 .....still hot from the reduction chambers.   The next step is a good scrubbing with scouring powder once they've cooled.

Big Monotype Tests.................

 ....18 x 24 Canson watercolor paper with Speedball Block printing ink.   Using a 16x20 gel plate and trying to determine the amount of ink required for these.   It's quite different from using a smaller plate.
