I found the mono printing workshop informative as I learnt a different technique to that I already know. The standard inking up a plate then drawing on top of paper leaving the design behind to either use from the paper or print the negative using a roller. This way involves inking a plastic sheet, placing a stencil over the top followed by plain paper and then putting through your choice of roller. The ink used is designed to not dry up if left open so you must add a drying agent into the mix to ensure that your designs actually dry some time soon. The first print would be done on standard cartridge paper with any after being done on a glossy paper that includes a drying agent and therefore designs look better and dry quicker. Below are 3 of the stencils I used to create many prints.
