Oil-ink monoprint, ghost pull impression

Available for hire

Makes monoprints by rolling oil-based ink on a glass plate, then subtracting marks by wiping, scratching, and pressing objects into the wet ink before pulling a single print. The 'ghost' — the faint second pull from the same plate — is always more interesting than the first. Every print exists exactly once.
