Dancing Poppy: Riso Print A3

Soft blues, greens and pinks blend together for this dreamy, ephemeral, dancing poppy.

Originally an acryla gouache painting, this is one of my favourite paintings and I've never quite been able to make anything like it again. A 5 colour A3 Riso Print of an oriental poppy at the end of it's bloom. The neon inks and the unique grainy texture of the riso printing contrasts nicely with the more traditional and soft subject matter.

What is Riso Printing?
Risograph printing is a low-fi form of 'digital screenprinting'. A little like a photocopier, it creates prints by layering stencils in one colour of ink, which overlap and mix to make unexpected shades. The work is often bold and bright, almost neon. Riso prints are low-fi and therefore able to be offered at a lower price point, but are not as lightfast as Giclée prints.

Riso prints may have slight misalignment of inks, roller marks or ink dragging which are all considered part of the artwork.
