this is very encouraging. i am finally able to say that i know how to control my medium.  This monoprint is working far better than the rest i have tried.  i should have just worked my own way than to try out someone else's method which i can never perfect.   

this is motivating me to do more monoprints.  too bad i grasped it 3 weeks late. and i am not letting my being in comd be an excuse for this.
