If you’re interested in learning more about dark field monotypes, like the one featured in this post, there’s a three-part series on my Youtube channel, and this video (above) demonstrates that you don’t need a press to try it. Pulling a dark field monotype from a zinc plate on my press. One can never have too many options for capturing good ideas. As artists, we’re harvesting our own stories with the images we make, and the use of ink & paper & 26 characters.ĭo you keep a notebook to harvest all your good ideas? Do you document any part of your process so you’ll know what worked and what didn’t? And do you use paper and pen, or an ipad or phone to track it all digitally? Is there an app you love to use for your note taking? Please share your tips in the comments, so we can check it out. It’s a fascinating, and very human story, and it made me think (among more profound things) about my own note-taking, and how universal it is for all of us to document individual process, categorize each passionate pursuit, and purge frustrating or successful expression. Thank goodness for writers and note takers and journal scribblers. I’m listening to a great audiobook ( The Demon Under the Microscope) about the history of the search for a cure to bacterial infections, and so much of the story is culled from journals and lab notes from the doctors, technicians and scientists pursuing a solution to the devastating effects of infection before 1937. Monotype print after being pulled from the plate, ready for other media as soon as the ink is dry. Previous years are stacked on my bookshelves like a documentary of my journey as an artist, and flipping through them gives me profound insight into my growth, successes and struggles, as well as the fidelity of themes that have stayed important to me for decades. If I have a sluggish day, and I can’t think clearly about what to make, or write about, I turn to my notebooks. My notebooks become a leather-bound version of my creative brain trust. It’s like chasing fireflies in a field there are so many of them, which should I pursue? 🙂 Removing ink (oil based Daniel Smith etching ink) from the plate (with a rolled paper blending stomp) to make a girl blowing dandelion seeds, morphing to birds in the tree branches.

I’ve learned that I need to act fast and catch every idea I have on paper, or I’ll lose it.

I’m easily distracted by incoming data from social media, exhibits, audiobooks, conversations, etc. Ideas are fleeting, and writing makes thoughts visual to me. In my previous career, brainstorming on a grease board in a conference room with peers was a process I loved, so perhaps that’s where I learned the value of thinking on paper. But when it comes to ideas, I find a pen and paper works best for documenting thoughts as they zoom by, and then fleshing out the details, offshoots, materials, and influences for that project. Much of my life hums along efficiently in digital format – I spend a good part of the day on a computer. Do you scribble ideas as soon as they arrive? A zinc plate, with black etching ink rolled evenly on the surface, ready for mark-making I’ve almost filled a new notebook with a braintrust of ideas, concepts, colorways, narrative series, and methods. In the meantime, I’m writing it all down.

But it won’t be this week, or even next week, because other priorities need to be juggled. I’ve got concepts piled high enough in my cranial attic to make a hoarder proud, and I can’t wait to get started. The ideas I have for new watercolor paintings, woodcuts, monotypes, drypoints and tutorial videos are swelling to burst. Dandelion Wind 4 x 6 Monotype & Colored Pencil – Sold
