About the Images

A MONO TYPE IS A ONE OF A KIND IMAGE .  IT CAN BE PRINTED ONE TIME ONLY.  EACH PRINT IS AN ORIGINAL CREATION.  THE PROCESS CONSISTS OF CREATING AN IMAGE ON A PLATE MADE OF A GEL LIKE MATERIAL. THE PLATE HAS A LITTLE GIVE TO IT SO THAT WHEN YOU PLACE A PAPER ON THE PLATE AND SMOOTH IT WITH YOUR HAND YOU CAN ACHIEVE A PRINT WITHOUT USING A PRINTING PRESS.  BY PRINTING MANY LAYERS, A COMPLEX IMAGE CAN BE ACHIEVED.   THE BEST MEDIUM FOR THIS TYPE OF PRINTING IS ACRYLIC PAINT.
