Monotypes - Inspiration and Artist

In this project, I was inspired by American artist Bob Cornelis. Based in Olympia, WA, he works in multiple mediums, printmaking, collage and photography.

The works have monotone colour schemes with layered texture, stencils and ghost prints, working with positive, negative space and shapes, it creates a highly contrasted cityscape.

In my project, I’m going to explore using these techniques, with my own stencils and found objects.
