Mono printing is a process that allows you to be very experimental. The techniques used mean you can be as controlled or as free as you like, but also mean that only one of each image can be produced. This method of printing gives a very artistic feel, with a rough, unique aesthetic, and is one of the most simplest.

Dip your roller into the ink and roll a block of the ink down the table. You want a nice thin layer that gives off a gentle hissing sound when rolling.
Place your paper over the inked surface.
Then, the worlds your oyster - Draw onto the paper using any blunt instrument of your choice.
Alternatively, you can draw over the ink and then gently burnish your paper onto it.
Once you have completed all you have wished to for-fill, get cleaning your mess up!
