Seven Color, Two Block Print

These prints measure 12”x22” on Stonehendge or Arches printmaking paper. The full paper size is 22” wide by 12” high. These prints call for 6 layers of screen printing before the final block print outline. Each layer requires a hand cut stencil for the appropriate color and shape. This print also requires two separate blocks to be laid.

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.
