The Process
Lino printing, or Mono printing, is a slow activity, starting with carving lino, or cutting stencils, overprinting with various inks, to produce a variety of painterly or sometimes not so painterly work. Monoprint/monotype means that all the work produced is different even though it goes through the same procedure.
6 monoprint colographs printed using tablet boxes and blister packs. These were from my first charity initiative 'One of many postcard' I was happy to be part of. The prints are given away free to any one that wanted one, in return for a donation to charity.

I built up layers of overlapping colours using stencils, carved lino and printed fabric for texture.
