ALL THE GOOD STUFF IS ON THE INSIDE
Linocut reduction and type
Inspired by my 4 year-old niece's "inside only" drawings on a sheet of folded paper, I thought how true that is, that all the good stuff is on the inside. The feathers and bubbles linocut is printed in three colors (metallic silver, split fount yellow and magenta, and warm red). The typography is printed in dark purple from dissected photopolymer plates. The arrow numbers are printed in warm red from metal types.
The prints are letterpress printed onto the pages of a deconstructed math text book.
(Type bleeds off top of print and off sides and top on bright colored papers.)
Please note: The Regular and Scribbly editions vary in color intensity. Some prints are brighter, some more subtle.

What are Gelatin Plate Monotypes?
Using unflavored gelatin, (yes, like Jell-o) a plate is poured into a clay frame and congealed in the refrigerator. The frame is removed and the plate is ready to be brayed or painted with water soluble inks. Using stencils, stamps, and other texture making tools, the plate is manipulated until ready to pull the print. The paper is placed on top of the inked gelatin plate and rubbed gently by hand. The paper is removed, and voila, the print is made.
