Francy describes the process of botanical monoprinting as follows:

“I ink my plexiglass plate, lay the actual plant onto the ink, cover with a piece of highly textured rice paper and pull the first print. In this print, the plant acts as a stencil. Then I remove the plant, layer a dampened sheet of Rives BFK on the plate and pull the final print. This print is the impression that the plant and the rice paper have left behind on the inked plate. It's a really fun process--I usually can reuse the plants many times and never know quite what I will get. It becomes kind of addicting.”
