I am an artist printmaker who does monotype prints in oil colours, printed from a glass plate in multiple layers.
All monotype prints are done by fully by hand without a press.

Specific properties of my monotype prints:
As the whole process is done by hand there can be little traces of oil colors or fingerprints on the unprinted areas of the print. Typically there are also some slight traces of the tool I use to transfer the oil color by rubbing on the backside of the papersheet.
I use a 170gr/sqm paper in natural white. Of course I try to adjust the images on our websites as much as possible to the real colors. However the originals are always slightly different and the digital images for webdisplay mostly do not show the rich detail of the originals.

In addition to monotype printing I do alot of drawing, sketching in various media preferrably ink, gouache and charcoal.
