Original artwork description:

Titled "Bubble Up" this 11" (27.94 cm) x 14" (35.56 cm) original acrylic monoprint is a dramatic one done in colours of ultramarine, teal and turquoise blue and blue-green with yellow ochre and a touch of burnt umber. It's been adhered to a cradled birch panel and is wired and ready to hang as shown in the photo.

The image goes right to the edge of the paper and it is signed in the lower right hand area. Done in professional artist Golden and Winsor & Newton acrylic paints.

The process of monotype printing is one in which paint/ink is put down on a plate (plexiglass, etc.), the image is constructed on that plate, paper is put down on top of it, pressure is applied to the back of the paper and then the paper is pulled off the plate. The image is then transferred onto the paper. This can be done once or over and over to construct an image. This results in ONE print only. Once this print is gone, it's gone. Done in lightfast and archival-quality top of the line professional Golden and Winsor Newton artist paints.

The back of the print may have paint smudges on as it's part of the immediacy of the process. I can't stop to clean my hands and sometimes the paint oozes over the back, but it in no way harms the image on the front. The paper is quite thick.
