£695
Original artwork description
A patchwork panorama of fields, rolling hills, and a distant viaduct that traverses the landscape. The hedgerows form patterns that dance with the rhythm of the land. Through subtle tonal variations and soft, graded colours, I aimed to convey the subtle beauty of the countryside and the importance of taking the long view in our lives.
A monotype is a one-off hand-made print, just as unique as a painting. I used rollers and dabbers to spread out ink on a smooth plastic board then made marks with a cloth and other tools. The ink was transferred to the paper using a hand-operated printing press. I built up layers of over-lapping colous by printing several times. I incorporated textures by impressing inked up textured paper and fabric. I also used paper stencils to make the crisp edges.
Image continues to the edges of the paper. Supplied unframed, rolled in a wide, strong tube.

Oil-based artist quality ink on Rives BFK cotton rag paper
