     This work represents more than a decade of research into these two methods of producing unique imagery. It places the contemporary scene in historical perspective with 41 black-and-white reproductions and 52 in full color. Artists represented include Rembrandt, Castiglione, Blake, Degas, Picasso, Georg Baselitz, and Christopher Brown. It also presents the basic techniques and processes for creating monotypes, including recent methods of photocopy transfer and the watercolor monotype.

     "This book will be an important addition to studios across the nation. I would recommend this book not only to the historian or curator but also to students and faculty in colleges, workshops, and art schools ..."
