ZOO 3 - Elephant Frits (2015)Monoprint by Hilde Hoekstra
42 x 29.7 x 0.1cm (unframed) / 27 x 20cm (actual image size)
£134.59
Original artwork description
Sappy green and greyish blues proved to be the basis of an elephant family! The use of a little net on my printing plate created the image of a fence. By drawing the animals more detailed with colored pencils I could create the image of a ZOO.
This monotype is made with two layers of acrylic paint on a home made gelatine plate and after drying colored in with Karisma soft colored pencils.
Printing gives me the pleasure of surprise. It always turns out different than expected. This triggers new ideas. My monoprints often consist of multiple layers of paint printed on top of each other. And after that printing process I also draw or paint on the prints again.

Acrylic paint; Karisma soft colored pencils; Acid-Free paper, 135 g/m2
