Life got in the way so I've not got back to doing these monoprints, but I'm hoping by next spring or summer I'll be in a position to get back to printmaking, including this technique.

The type of paper used can also make a difference in the outcome, and it is worth trying more or less absorbent paper. The amount of ink left on the plate takes practice too. I like to do contour drawings this way; and also the use of black ink with watercolor for the finished image.. I first began doing these after watching some YouTube videos by Belinda Delpesco.
