Gocco Print: “As Spring Brings Life to Art”

As Spring Brings Life to Art: The Print

Print Specifications:
Description: Multi-layered print, using Riso Serigraph (Gocco)
Size: 4 x 5.75 inches (the image); With edges around the print,
total paper size 8 x 5.75 in.
Colours: Japanese blue (pearl), Pastel yellow, Red, Gold, Pastel Pink, Purple

This Gocco Print (aka Riso Serigraph) was based on this collage/mixed media piece that I created:

As Spring Brings Life To Art

Size: Same as print
Materials: Watercolour Paper, Watercolours, Pen, Pencil, Fabric, Glue, Buttons, Old Music Sheet, Decorative Paper

It’s been sooooo long since I managed to finish an artwork that I’m happy with. And yes, I’m quite pleased with this.

Anyway, here’s my little display of prints:

My First Gocco Print Display

12 Limited Edition Prints (all signed and numbered [1/12, etc] in pencil, front)
3 stationery pieces (card and paper); 6 art bookmarks

By the way, this print was created over a period of 5 or 6 days at least. Since I’m holding down a full time job and all, I didn’t get to spend a lot of time on it on a day-to-day basis. I ended up just playing around with the print to begin with for about half an hour to an hour here and there. But, I guess there’s no other way to do it right now.

If you want to read about the process of creating this print, you can check out: Gocco Print: Layer by Layer.

Hmmm… now what do I do with all these prints? :-)

    really lovely. Not sure how you manage to find the time, between work and being a mother! I’m looking forward to the day when my hands are free to do some of my own artwork again. You have inspired me, thanks :)

    Hi Shai,
    Those are really funky looking. I would normally love the cool tones, but am totally drawn to the top colours. Looks so much fun. I suppose you can just give them as gifts or sell them through etsy. ;-)

    Lovely, just lovely!
    Congrats for coming up with such creative ideas. :) Any chance you’ll be giving away any of those prints? ;)

    Jo: Thanks! But hey - you have YOUR talents, you wouldn’t want any of mine. ;-)
    Kari: Really? Do you think they’ll pay for it too? Hehe. :-D
    Wonderwebby: Glad to have inspired you. :-) I think it’s not a matter ‘having enough time’ in my case. There’s never enough! But, I’m happy to forego certain things, to make time to do things that I feel are essential to me. :-)
    Heather: Good to know that you like them too! Etsy might be a consideration one day. Just as a hobby or something (or a way to buy new supplies!). Not sure. We’ll see how it goes… But yeah, some family and friends will probably be getting some prints for Christmases/Birthdays. Haha. Although, having said that, I’m always not sure about giving art as pressies - unless I know that they really like what I do. :-)
    kathy: Thank you so much! Not sure yet. But, maybe I’ll do some kind of contest here or something. I’ll think about it. :-)
    Leon: That’s nice. Thanks.

    Rapids: Thank you. Hope you enjoyed it.
