I'm not done with the monotypes as of yet but I am winding down to concentrate on other forms of print making ( etchings, lithograph, linocut, drypoint ) when I am doing prints. I have been able to gain some insights in the process but the only way to learn it is to do it. The monochrome monotypes have become my favorite type. There is an honesty there that either works or it doesn't. There is a bit more relying on the abstract qualities of the image but I've always viewed the landscape as the ultimate abstract art form.
