Little new things

Paul Gaugain invented a special type of monotypia, by putting printing ink on a hard surface, placing a sheet of paper on top, and then drawing on the back of the piece of paper. All pressed areas would thus touch the ink and stick on the paper. The result is interesting, though not very precise, as the paper tends to catch color also outside the intended areas. The final work thus requires interventions. I chose to "fix" some of the contours with acrylic paint.
