This series of monotype prints are based on cave drawings found in Lascaux, France that date back some 15,000 years. The images of bison, horses and other animals from the original have been replaced by my automobile drawings. My quick gestural markings are meant to capture a feeling of roaming vehicles.

monotypes

I create mostly monotypes which are single unique prints. I use a method sometimes called an "ink pick up print". I place paper face down on a sheet of glass covered with printing ink and sketch on the back. The ink from the glass is then transferred directly onto the paper from the pressure of the drawn line.
