Mallard Manners Acrylic Monoprint (Mounted)
"Mallard Manners" is an acrylic monoprint measuring 8" wide by 10" tall. The print was pulled onto paper, and then mounted on an artist's panel. This surreal artwork presents a captivating anthropomorphic duck elegantly adorned in lavish, historical attire reminiscent of the opulent fashion from the 18th or 19th century, brimming with intricate patterns.
The background combines an array of floral patterns and geometric lines that extend from the central figure. Executed in a monochromatic palette, "Mallard Manners" merges pop surrealism with historical elements.
The creation of this piece is particularly unique; it's a monoprint developed using a gel plate. The duck's head is derived from a laser print of an illustration, while the dress used a collagraph of varied textured papers and printed materials. This innovative technique allows for a harmonious transfer of laser prints and printed papers onto the gel plate, further enriching the textures and layers within the artwork.
