quick subtractive monotype (figure)

roll up a solid dark tone of ink

make sure the layer is thin and even

choose a subject and focus on the light areas

use a piece of paper towel to remove ink and create the light areas

draw lines with the back of a paintbrush

pull out more light areas with a cotton swab

blend and give some directional texture with a dry brush

and you have a very fast monotype with some interesting textures
