Abstractions

A monoprint with leaf stencils of the C&O Canal

Along the C&O Canal

2016

Monoprint (planographic) with leaf stencils

15 ¼" x 12", printed to the paper’s edge

This is based on a photograph I took while walking on the C&O Canal (Cabin John MD). By painting on the plexiglass several times during the printing process as I put the image through the press again, I was able to get more textures and depth. In my view, this is still an abstract piece that is suggestive of forest patterns. This was printed by me in the print studio of MassArt (Boston).
