Monotypes

 Aka monoprints. To my mind, monoprints are the amateur version, and monotype is what they become in a gallery or exhibition. 

So these are monoprints. Trials. Experiments. They turned up during a recent studio rummage and brought back memories of a summer class (a whole week of entire days) at City Lit, in which I used a kettle as starting point/subject. It started with drawing and printmaking, and moved on to painting, and was in 2016 (see here).

The folder of work from the class sits upstairs; when I looked at its contents a year or so ago, I wasn't ready to discard them yet. Still thinking "I might use these later", why is that?
