In the studio we experimented with mono prints. We did this by engraving into a piece of card, rolling ink onto a glass surface and then onto our card before pressing it onto a separate piece of paper.

I created an abstract skeleton engraving by drawing with pencil and then cutting partially through the card.

In another print I cut up a rubber glove and placed the segments into the shape of a heart, then I placed the paper on top before rolling the ink. This created the soft illusion of a heart shape. In hindsight I wish I pressed the ink down further or used a little less to try and achieve the veiny effect the gloves had.

I really enjoyed using these methods but I believe it will take some more practise to fully grasp the best way to do this in my style.
