Riso Print - Visiting from the Valley of the Wind

"It's so beautiful. It's hard to believe these spores could kill me."

This is the small version of my three color Risograph print, made by layering blue, yellow and fluorescent pink ink.

Inspired by Miyazaki's Nausicaa film.

Hand printed by layering one Riso color at a time printed by Natalie Andrewson in her studio.

Size is 8.5 x 11" on smooth 65lb. natural white paper.

*Riso or Risograph is an imperfect printing process made by layering different colored inks to create rich and vibrant images. Because this process requires adding one layer of ink at a time, slight differences in registration are natural and sometimes roller marks from the machine can occur.

This is just a quirk of working with this printmaking method that makes each print unique!
