agree David Vaughn : Just to clarify for the translator - a monotype is not usually considered a "painting", but a "print" - for example I paint on one surface, then I use this to print onto another surface. "Mono" = the process is so aleatory that the result is a unique work

agree Julie Draper-Duruz : I agree even moreso with vaughn than with the original reference to it being a painting as it is in fact a print with unique embellishments
