Monotype

0 Commentsby Nil Santana | 01.20.12 | Assignments

MONOTYPE:
The printing of an image from a clean, unworked surface containing no scratching or carving (in contrast to an etching plate or woodblock).

A monotype is, as its name implies, a one-of-a-kind image. Ink is applied in any of a multitude of ways to a smooth surface and then transferred to paper. Unlike most printmaking processes, a monotype image is not reproducible: each print is a unique impression. Monotypes have been called the most painterly of prints, because if ink is applied to the plate with a brush, the resulting print may display brushmarks quite similar to those of a painting.

Welcome to Printmaking!
