What a brilliant print. I love the fact that the rabbit is a bit lost in the abstraction, and then the eye really grasps it. Just out of curiosity, how long does it take you to do a monotype? The ink doesn't dry? I've never done it myself so I'm curious :)

I'm sorry for the late reply ^^ Just been a little busy.
Monotypes really depend on how complicated you want it really, This one I think I worked for around 5 hours on. It's a little bigger than A4, and I though I would play around with the scratching and turps :) It was alot of fun. I was told by the teacher at the time that you can work on it for a little bit, but i'm assuming the ink would dry after a day or two. But, since you need to wet the paper when you print, it kind of reactivates then.
Have a go though, they really are alot of fun ^^ If you want to know anything else, let me know :)

I found it quite easy myself, but often people get confused about having to remove the white only. It's really fun though once you get the hang of it. And you can use anything for tools, I used shredded paper, paper towels, the back of a pencil and a paintbrush.

And, thank you, i'm glad you like it :)
