Mono prints

I love the strong colours in this piece.

I used screenprinting inks, but used them on a Geli plate rather than a screen.

The top layer is then laid over a backing fabric and I machine stitched my conker design through the two pieces. I used a reverse appliqué technique or cut and slash to remove some sections.

I thought this piece was really successful, but my Geli plate is only A4 size, so it limits the size of the piece I can produce.

I need to find a big sheet of strengthened glass.
