Facebook meets Blogger - aka 'Rhett wrote on Scarlett's wall'

Rhett & Scarlett -- 6"x 9" monotype print with watercolor

Greetings, gentle readers. All worlds merge on the internet it seems, as my blog is now on my facebook page. Thanks to all of you who confirmed my blog ownership (...what an odd thing to say). I finally gave in and joined the grand social network, and I'm glad I did. Its been wonderful to reconnect with so many old friends - if any of you have stumbled across this blog...welcome! This is the ongoing chronicle of my return to printmaking. Some of you have prints of mine that I gave to you years ago, and it's wonderful to hear that they still have a place in your heart and in your home. If it's your first time visiting, poke around, look at some older posts, I welcome comments and questions. If you like what you see, come back again (you can even subscribe if that strikes your fancy) and see what's new.

Today's print, from my recent Hollywood Icons show, is "Rhett & Scarlett" from Gone with theWind. This print is a monotype created by covering a metal plate in printing ink and then carefully removing ink with paper towels, blending stumps, q-tips, etc., to define the image. Paper is then placed over the plate, the plate is run through the press transferring the ink to the paper and...voila! I then watercolored the print after the ink had dried.

Scarlett wrote on Rhett's wall: I only know that I love you.

I just found your blog via a google search for collographs. I'm a grad student doing art therapy and I'm taking a class called printmaking for art therapists. And . . . your work is astounding. I love it. It is so beautiful in line quality and composition and dedication. I can't tell you how grateful I am to have come across your blog tonight. Your work definitely fed my soul. Please don't ever stop doing what you're doing! Truly, I find your work magnificent. Thank you so much for sharing.

I recently started printmaking as well, and totally love the subtractive monotype method for creating prints. As a GWTW fan...your print is awesome.

I've been wondering about copyright issues and using movie stills (like Rhett and Scarlett). Any knowledge of the legalities of that, in the technical sense?
