Monotype printing serves as a dynamic bridge between my plein air studies and studio compositions. This technique's inherent spontaneity and embrace of chance invigorate my practice, often reintroducing looseness and luminosity to my work.

In this process, I apply traditional oil paints onto a smooth, non-absorbent surface—such as glass or acrylic—before transferring the image onto high-quality, archival paper using pressure. The result is a singular, painterly print that captures the essence of a moment or place.

The monotype's unique ability to encapsulate fleeting impressions makes it a compelling medium for exploration. I relish the balance of control and unpredictability it offers, allowing for the creation of works that are both expressive and original.

The table also holds a small open palette with paint, a white towel, an orange pair of gloves, a rubber mallet, and a large red tray. In the background, crates and boxes are stacked against a wall.
