Illustration Friday - Bottled


This is my contribution to this week's Illustration Friday challenge. I used my Baby Richeson Press to create this watercolour monoprint. I added some ink keylines around the bottles to highlight them a bit more.

This photograph shows the first "round" using masks to create the monoprint. Which version do you like better?
Here is a detail. I wish you could see it in person!

  1. I love monoprints. I guess I'm an optimist. I prefer the full bottles.

  2. It's always refreshing to see a more traditional and historical form of artwork on I.F. (compared to digital art). I love it!

  4. I have done various types of printmaking (woodcut, lino, etching) over the years. My Richeson Baby press is a relatively new addition to my studio and I am having a ton of fun making monoprints!

    Thank you for your kind comments!
