Another literal interpretation from me 🤗
My entry for #printpromptmonday #flipped - “Bugger” - it was a lino print originally but this is the Riso version.

Woohoo! It’s #printpromptMonday and in celebration of Pancake Day the prompt this week is “Flipped”

No instructions on interpretation - go crazy. Please try to use alt text when sharing images.

Use hashtags #printpromptmonday & #flipped

"Invisible Helper" 10"x 10"
Collagraph/Linocut on Unryu
2025

On the final layer, I "flipped" the paper over and printed the back, showing the paper fibers. This diptych, shows both the "front" and "back" of the finished prints

🎺 The Print Prompt Monday - March Prompts 🎺

Interpret the prompts however you want!

You might want to hold off posting anything until we make the weekly Monday 6pm post (just you’ll get more engagement then)

Give this a share!

These 2 monoprints were some of the first prints I made using this relief collagraph technique, made during my summer residency at Rubber City Prints in Akron, Ohio in 2018
