Mono-Printing Textures


I just love printing! The black images in this picture were mono-printed onto paper. Next I used various texture plates including alphabets and grids under the paper and rubbed over them with an oil pastel. Watercolour was washed over the top to bring out these great textures.


The textures in this example below were all mono-printed straight onto fabric with block ink. Lines and cross hatching were achieved with a biro and a skewer on the back of the fabric. The circles were outlined with a stencil and the pale soft areas of blue were rubbed on from the back with fingertips.
