Abstract Monoprints

A monoprint is a single impression of an image made from a re-printable block. Materials such as metal plates, litho stones or wood blocks are used for etching upon. Rather than printing multiple copies of a single image, only one impression may be produced, either by painting or making a collage on the block.

In this workshop I had participants paint with tempra paint on sheets of transparency film and then transfer the painting onto paper using different color construction paper and a brayer. 

Supplies:
Transparency Film (staples)
Tempra Paint
Barren or a brayer
Brushes and a cup of water for cleaning brushes
