Monotype
A monotype is a print pulled in an
edition of one, from a painting made on a sheet of metal or
glass and then passed through the etching press. In some cases, it
is possible to run the plate again, and get a "ghost"
image. A ghost has a softer line, less detail and more diffuse
color. Monotype is an immediate technique unlike many other
printmaking processes, but one has to remember that the image will
appear in reverse! The shrimp below are monotype and it's ghost.
