Making monotypes is a fun, painterly approach to creating one-of-a-kind, hand-printed impressions. This introductory, step-by-step guide is unique in that it eliminates the traditional use of a mechanical press or other expensive equipment, making the process readily accessible to anyone.
Readers are invited to explore a series of creative monotype projects by following the easy-to-follow, illustrated instructions. Materials used are readily available, such as unflavored gelatin, water-based printing inks and tempera paint. Demonstrations by different artists show how to use one, two, or a combination of basic techniques to create truly unusual prints while encouraging improvisation and discovery.
It's an ideal resource for professional or amateur artists who wish to experiment with printmaking, as well as teachers or parents who want to introduce their students or children to the process.

Nancy Marculewicz earned a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. A workshop introduced her to monotypes and monoprints using a plate made from edible, unflavored gelatin. Since then, she has been exploring this unique printmaking method and teaching workshops that produce images that are truly one-of-a-kind. Her artwork has been shown throughout the US and Europe, winning awards for both creativity and excellence. Nancy lives in Essex, Massachusetts.
