Monoprint Transfers Using Positive Plates
A method of doing multiple-color monoprint transfer lithographs using positive plates and litho coal powder. It allows an artist to work in the color they will be printing with, in a relatively quick and intuitive way that would be most relevant for artists who like to work in a painterly way, and who don't mind the occasional technical surprise along the way.
