Jello/Gelatin Monoprint with an actual sword fern.

Fern was placed on black acrylic paint on a gelatin pad.

Muslin was placed on top and pressed down, creating the negative fern image.

You can see an excellent TUTORIAL slideshow on my blog:

I love how you stuck with a simple black-and-white color scheme, but created such interesting imagery. The fern print turned out beautifully.
