Developing Mono-Prints


"The Embrace", Detail, 1909
This mono-print was influenced by Gustav Klimt’s elaborate paintings which feature small repeated patterns within his imagery. I noticed that book cover designs are also characterised by circular and diamond motifs, and so I stylised my paintings with attractive geometric shapes, adding intricate details in different shades similar to Klimt’s work.
I followed the same colour palette as dominant yellow looks lively and would brighten a space, and is complemented by pastel shades of green and purple alongside duller brown tones.
