Photo Silkscreen Prints and Monoprints

by Sharon Petraitis

 

"My  work has been primarily in the field of printmaking:
silkscreen,  etching, and monoprint.  Some of the monoprints were imprinted on  handmade paper. 
I have worked with photo silkscreen, using the images from l950's  negatives and also  from glass negatives from the early l900's. 

Color is of prime importance in my rendering, as  are the  background, clothes, and images depicting another time and place.  I have worked with the images to make graphic designs and collages."
