The Blue Tree: Monotype



I don' have many examples of monotype in my experience but I would like to change that.    Monotypes are made by drawing on glass in acrylics (or your preferred medium) and then pressing a paper on top of it to make a print.   You can draw with a tool of any kind, or you can wipe away paint with a rag to get the effect you want.  

This little piece was bought by a couple of friends, Philippe and Jacqueline, and now hangs in their guest bedroom.   I visit it sometimes.
