Mono prints on fabric

Hi everyone, I have been experimenting with mono printing on to fabric. This is what i ended up with.

The top two remind me of cells under a microscope; the bottom one is alot darker (much more ink was applied to the plate) this has a more spacey look.

As always thank you for looking.

Small etchings

Hello everyone, I thought I would share with you some small fabric prints. They are etchings ( the plates were made by using a compass point on acetate).

The first is of a solitary figure leaving as an evacuee. This is a simplistic yet haunting and emotional image.

The second shows several childrens faces that repsent the masses effected and the loss and uncertanity surrounding conflict.

Thank you for looking.
