"Who can say wherein lies the charm of a monotype— that unique print from a painted plate, which stands in the half shadow between painting and printmaking? ...

She tells us that monotype, the simplest, least time consuming & most spontaneous printmaking process, is endlessly absorbing. Experiment. Play. Print. Have fun!
