This piece of art if called a Monotype print. I used miniature Japanese maple leaves, black and red ink, 3 plexiglass plates, and several soft rollers to apply to the various plates. Next I place a piece of damp paper on top of the first completed plate, hand crank it through my etching press which transfers the ink on the plate to the paper, and repeated this process with the other plates. This piece has been hand created, hand signed and numbered 1 of 1, and although it is technically called a "print", it is an original piece of art, and the only one in existence.
