thank you! actually monprints- painted blocks of acrylic on a piece of glass, scratched the shapes in and sprizted some water on some watercolor papaer, laid the paper on the wet paint & rolled it with a brayer. got several prints from one try, with the images getting lighter and less defined. then went back and painted over and embellished.

i will be trying more, for sure!

Do you let the acrylic paint dry, or work really fast and try to finish the plate and print while it is wet?
