Monotype or Monoprint? Examples, with Wine

This post is all about vines and vineyards. As we sip our Cabernet, I will also tell you about two varieties of fine art prints. I’m talking about monotypes and monoprints. Know the difference?

Did I just hear an ad for Roundup weedkiller on the @Lawrence podcast??? I like your show, listen daily. But this poison that is decimating the bees is not the right sponsor for you. Please don't participate in their business.
