"Surf Date" Monotype on Board 19.5 x 24

Finished Monotype "Surf Date"  19.5"x 24"

The inking of plate done.  I then place the under painted board on top of the inked  wax paper.  

ink being applied to wax paper (plate).  I leave areas uninked to allow the colors from my under painting to show through.  

I use wax paper as my plate.  Here you can see the wax paper on top of the drawing. The drawing is a mirror image of the finished monotype.   

This is the under painting on masonite board.
