Description
Original gyotaku of a Nabeta (Iniistius pavo). Considered a delicacy in Hawaii.
Printed on 100% Habotai silk using an archival, water soluble, printmaking ink that is oil-based. It has been dry mounted to Xuan rice paper using a traditional mounting method used for Japanese and Chinese scroll mounting. It is PH neutral (acid free). Measures 8 inches x 12 inches.
One of the main ways to protect your silk artwork from moisture, dust, and UV rays is to frame it under conservation glass or acrylic which has a coating that blocks the UV rays. A mat is optional, as long as the artwork is not in direct contact with the glass.
This is an original one-of-a-kind impression. Signed in pencil and stamped with my red chop in the lower right corner. Comes with a signed certificate of authenticity.
