Five Color Print in Gulf Livery

The 917 is a car most of us dream of. From its killer streak at Le Mans to McQueens controversial film, it’s ingrained into automotive legacy. Not many cars out there have such a diverse history.

These prints measure 18”x22” on Stonehendge or Arches printmaking paper. The full paper size is 18” wide by 22” high. These prints are currently one of the most complex in my collection. They call for 4 layers of screen printing before the final block print outline. Each layer requires a hand cut stencil for the appropriate color and shape. All these layers need to line up just right to get the final image.

*Please note that the "Gulf" wording on this print is actually white.

As with any handmade object, these prints will vary in the color placement and pigmentation. I discard any prints that are way off, but there will always be a slight misalignment. This is part of the design and not a defect.

Handling

Paper artworks tend to be one of the most vulnerable. This makes them more interesting and desirable. Like a vintage car, paper art needs proper maintenance and care. Mishandling, excess light, extreme temperature changes and humidity can readily damage them. Please take heed of the handling instructions to help maintain the beauty and lifespan of your artwork.
