On Thursday I took an all day workshop with Patty Pico at
Northwest Art School in monoprinting. For her particular method no printing press is necessary! And clean up is with simple soap and water. I worked nonstop all day with only a break for lunch. Time flew by and only then did I realize how tired I had become. I had so much fun and learned some wonderful techniques with new materials. If you're near Whidbey Island, she's giving another workshop in November. Below are some photos from the day.

monoprints on tissue paper |
Above are some of the monoprints I did on tissue paper. I can use these in my collage works.
Although a printing press was not necessary, I got to do a monoprint on a press. What an incredible machine!

double rainbow and raindrops |
It was pouring rain all day, but when I got home from the workshop (after an hour's drive), the rain was slowing. Above is the double rainbow that I could see from our rental house. The white specs are the raindrops that were still falling.

And above is the collage I've started with the tissue paper monoprints as the first layer.
I hope everyone had a good week.
See you at bluechair's
