Steps
Step 1Using washable markers, draw your flower design onto the wet media film sheet. Optional: Draw your flowers onto a blank sheet of mixed media paper, then place the wet media film over the top and copy with markers.
Step 2Spritz a fine mist of water on a blank sheet of mixed media paper. Ensure the paper is damp, but not dripping wet.
Step 3Gently lay down your mixed media paper over the top of your wet media film. Using your hands or a brayer, apply pressure over the paper. Once you feel like you have rubbed over the entire piece, peel the paper back to reveal your monoprint.
