Monoprinting—My Way

I love monoprinting when I get a creative block—and whenever I fancy a fast, fun and totally rewarding piece of pretty fabric.

Here is how I make a fast monoprint.

First, I squeeze out a few Setacolours onto my table. I have placed a large piece of plastic on the tabletop.

Then I use a regular paint brush and paint straight lines across the table.

And here is the first ‘pull’.

This is just my latest piece. Really, nothing hard or special about it, but it demonstrates how to make an easy monoprint..
