Hit the studio today making more monotypes for the CSA Project at the Harlow Gallery. Like the last set I was working on, I'm really digging the look and feel of this process. My husband taught me a method for monotypes using water soluble Speedball ink on a plexiglass plate. I played around with it and really found that I liked covering the entire plate in custom color mixed ink and then using a reductive method of drawing my image in. I'm finding that it leaves an almost ghostly appearance which matches the hazy memories I'm working from (as well as the instant photographs to jog the brain).
