Mono Print with Golden Paints
Below: Golden's Thick Body Paint, Indian Yellow, on the foam plate. Above: First print printed onto commercial stationary.
Will have to mix some extender with the Golden Paints they dry out wayyyyyyyyyyy too fast! I thought I'd try it with just straight paint to see just how fast the paint does dry out.Mono printing
I over printed yesterday's reverse print, which didn't turn out so well the print looks really good with color coming from behind, though if I were to do it again I'd make the top print more saturated.
This last one is my favorite out of the bunck, even if it is a little crooked on the paper. The object in the background to the right is a windmill, they are springing up all over the rural landscape here so it's only natural I would incorporate them in my work. ;-)More Mono Printing
The first three, was still working out the ink consistancy on the brayer.
Printed on PFD cotton fabric that has been prewashed, just not ironed.
First run is now completed.
Not bad for a first run it's been about 5 years since I've done any serious printing.
