Asingle print made from a "painting" done in ink or a flat metal plate, or from a tracing in ink on a sheet of glass. The image to be printed id not permanently fixed into the printing matrix and, therefore, is transferred completely to the paper during the act of printing, after which no reusable trace remains on the matrix.
A unique image printed from a plate, glass, metal, or other material on which an image is painted or drawn. A monotype impression is one of a kind. However, a second, lighter impression, called a ghost, can be made from the painted or drawn printing element.
is a combination of printing and painting techniques. An artist paints or places ink directly on top of an unmarked printing plate. A single image is then lifted from the plate and transferred onto paper or other support by traditional printing techniques.
A work of art that is part "print" and part "painting." The artist draws/paints on a plate (glass, plastic, metal, etc.) then transfers the image onto paper by hand-rubbing or with a printing press. Each result is one-of-a-kind. The opposite of an "edition" where multiple originals are created.
A one time or unique print.
A single image printed on paper from a polished plate, glass, metal, or other material.
a hand-pulled, ink-on-paper print
a hybrid art form, combining aspects of both painting and printmaking
a one of a kind, hand-pulled print
a one-of-a-kind print made by transferring a painted image to paper
a print created by transferring to paper an image that has been painted on a plate made of metal, glass, plexiglas, etc
a single original print created by transferring to paper an image that has been painted on another surface
a single print pulled from a glass or metal plate on which ink or paint has been applied
a unique piece of artwork, a one of a kind impression that is drawn or painted on a Plexiglas or metal plate
a unique print made by inking an unincised plate of glass or metal and passing it through a press to transfer an impression to an absorbent surface, typically paper
One of a kind print made by painting on a smooth plate and then transferring the image to paper. The original painting is destroyed in order to make the print.
A print made by painting on a sheet of glass and then transfering the wet paint to paper. It is different from most prints in that the image is unique.
The difference here is subtle, but important: a monoprint means the image was carved, etched, etc. into one surface, then "printed" onto another surface. A monotype means the image was painted onto one surface, then transferred (by pressing the two surfaces together) to another surface.
Technically, an edition of only one print. Also referred to as a unique variant or a monoprint.
Ink or paint is applied to a smooth plate. Because there is no fixed matrix, only one strong impression can be printed.
A one-of-a-kind print made by painting on a sheet or slab of glass and transferring the still-wet painting to a sheet of paper held firmly on the glass by rubbing the back of the paper with a smooth implement, such as a large hardwood spoon. The painting may also be done on a polished plate, in which case it may be either printed by hand or transferred to the paper by running the plate and paper through an etching press.
A form of printmaking in which the artist draws or paints on some material, such as glass, and then prints the image onto paper, usually with a press. The remaining pigment can then be reworked, but the subsequent print will not be an exact version of the previous print. Monotypes may be unique prints or variations on a theme.
A one of a kind print made by painting on smooth metal, creating a texture that is not possible to paint directly on paper.
only one strong impression can be made by this process, hence its name.
One print made by painting on a sheet of metal or glass and transferring the wet painting to a sheet of paper by hand or with an etching press. More prints can be made, but the reprint would have great variations from the original image, so each print is unique.
Image printed from a plate or surface which carry no permanent mark and transfer cannot allow for edition repetition.
A unique print created from an image painted on metal, plastic or glass and then run through a press with paper, transfering the image from plate to paper.
Regarded as a print because it involves a printing process, monotype refers to the process whereby an unworked metal plate is painted with ink by the artist and then printed onto paper. The ink will usually deliver one strong and one weak impression. Invented in the 17th century, monotype was used by, among others, Degas, and finds much favour with artists because of the remarkable effects it can produce.
A unique print made from a painting on a non-absorbent surface such as plexiglas, that is transferred to the paper by the pressure of the hand or with a press. It is sometimes possible to print a second or "ghost" impression from a monotype plate, especially if a press is being used. The artist may rework areas of the plate between the first and second printings or use more than one plate, but the second impression is never exactly the same as the first. Many types of pigment can be used, including printer's inks, oil paints, oil pastels and watercolors, depending on the desired effect.
A unique print made from an inked, painted glass or metal plate.
This is a technique in which the artist paints directly onto a metal plate with inks, often colored. The process has to be quick and decisive, as the freehand painting and passing of the painted block through the printing press must all take place before the ink has a chance to dry. The artist generally paints in reverse; starting with light colors and working towards dark ones. Each monotype is unique.
a print made by painting on a smooth metal, glass or stone plate and then printing the image on paper. the pressure of printing creates a texture not possible when painting directly on paper. no two monotypes will be exactly alike.
Unique print from a non-absorbent plate usually metal or plastic; usually only one impression is made
A one-of-a-kind image using drawing and painting strategies to develop an image on a smooth surface. The information is then printed on a sheet of paper.
A print made from a wet painting on a non-absorbent surfaces such as glass, Plexiglas, or metal that is transferred to paper either by the pressure of the hand or an etching or lithographic press. It is sometimes possible to pull a second or "ghost" impression from a monotype plate, especially if a press is being used. Often the artist will rework areas of the plate between the first and second printings or use more than on plate, but the second impression never exactly the same as the first. Many types of pigment can be used, including oil paints, acrylics, printer's ink, enamels, watercolors, and gouache, depending on the desired effect. Whatever the pigment, the transfer process entails a metamorphosis between the image as drawn or painted on the plate and the image as it ultimately appears on the paper.
The only type of print that comes in an edition of one. The artist draws or paints on a flat surface, then lays fine paper over the surface and pulls the package through a press. Because no fixed design has been created in the plate, the design can never be exactly duplicated. However, artists can partially re-ink the plate and run it through a press in successive printings, creating a series of prints similar to the original. These are known as "ghost prints." Monotypes are signed and numbered in the margin 1/1 indicating one print from an edition of one.
A single print made from a metal or glass plate on which has been painted an image in paint, ink, etc.(empty)(empty)
One-of-a-kind print made by painting on a sheet of metal or glass and transferring the still-wet painting to a sheet of paper by hand or with an etching press. If enough paint remains on the master plate, additional prints can be made, however, the reprint will have substantial variations from the original Image. Monotype printing is not a multiple-replica process since each print is unique.
