Monoprints

UFO monoprint by Charlie

Yesterday, Charlie and I experimented with making mono prints.  I got the idea from pinterest - the place where all good ideas go to die. Check out the Artful Parent for decent directions. At my request, my son gave this a try.  I like to experiment with different crafts.

We tried to use a pastry roller to help with the prints
It was better without

Our painting/printing was pretty impromptu and messy.  In other words, I used what I had on hand. Our set-up was the back of a metal pan, old acrylic paint, smaller paint roller, and q-tips. This was a low commitment craft and it was fun to mess with.
