The monotype is an intriguing hybrid among printmaking techniques. It is neither a print nor a painting, but a unique combination of both. The method is named because it is one image—mono—painted or drawn with oil or print ink, directly on to a plate of plexiglass then run through a press on to paper. The monotype is a singular image and cannot be replicated like a wood block, lithographic stone, or etching plate.

The monotypes are reflective of my landscapes with the focus being on light and color, mood and weather.
