Hannah's monoprints are inspired by beaches and harbours in West Sussex and Cornwall.
To create these prints she uses a piece of flexible plastic as a printing plate and builds up the image in rollered sections, brush strokes and splatters of ink. She then uses a cloth and clay tools to blur or scrape back through these soft films of ink, revealing previous levels of mark making. The completed plate and damp paper are passed together through the press, transferring the image.
Print pieces can be bought in three ways:
-A small number of the original monoprints are available for sale. Please see the 'Small Original' section of this website. Prices start at £350 for a small, mounted original print. Please email htounsend@aol.com to buy one.
-Prints that have been reproduced in very limited edition, high quality, giclee print runs of 60. They are sold mounted or framed and can be bought through the 'Shop' section of this website and through selected galleries.
-Monoprint work is used as the starting point for the huge Statement Print-Paintings which are overworked in watercolour, pastel and charcoal. Only a small number of these pieces exist and they are mainly made to commission. See the 'Statement Print-Painting' section of this website for more details.
