The value of test/mono prints...

[cubbiephan]

its really as simple as if you like the image or not. there are a couple of leias that i really love.

here are some of my favorites from my collection.







then sometimes its all about that one layer. i recently picked up this one becaue the top grey layer is my boy ernie.

I still contend that 98% of all test prints are just a hot mess ....

... the above is in that 2% ....

My three favorite Mono's:







These three examples are completed hand embellished by being totally painted over. They're more paintings than monoprints.

thanks man, of the two it's hard to pick a favorite. for me, landing a jay test print with a fugazi print was pretty awesome. on the other hand that alkaline trio is one of my favoirte jay prints.

i usually dont care for them, except in this case :



also I do have test prints (only 3 out 4 colors etcetera) for some prints that I personally like a lot

wow. that's really close to the one i own.



i snagged this one b/c i love his blue planet series which i also own.

Value lies in the eyes of the beholder. I think they are great for the information they provide on the process. But I think people are insane for paying large amounts for them. Was a lot nicer when they were 5 or 10 bucks on the end of the table at Flatstock......
