Bookmark of Days revisits a location that holds a duality of being anywhere and nowhere in particular at once.
Like mementos from your travels and snapshots from your favorite window view, these small vista monotypes evoke a feeling of intimate space that retains a sense of landscape expansion beyond the frame.
The process includes hand rubbed transfer of pigments from an inked up gelatin plate and repeating the process multiple times with thin layers developed over time.
A small monotype such as this can take 2- 4 hrs to develop.
The practice can be meditative and some of the spontaneous unplanned gestures that result after a pull are worth the effort.
