Description: Naomi L. Policoff A Frog He would A Wooing Go Limited Edition 6/20 Monotype Print Abstract Numbered signed and title Hand signed by the artist in pencil On Rives BfK Paper From France. A monotype is a print, but with one major difference from other Printmaking Processes: the artist creates exactly one print, instead of multiples editions. This is due to the way a monotype is made. To Make a Monotype, the artist applies paint or ink directly onto the plate which can be metal, glass, plexiglas, or even gelatin. The plate is pressed against the paper to transfer the ink, so the finished print is a mirror image of what's on the plate. The printing can be done with a printing press or sometimes by hand.
