Riso Print: Medieval Lion in Flo Orange

A medieval lion and her 3-headed dragon companion. Pulled from the March illustration in my 2024 calendar.

11x14" on 65lb vellum bristol cream paper

3-color Riso print using fluorescent orange, olive and federal blue

Really hard to capture these colors accurately in photos, so just know that the lion is a real FLUORESCENT orange in a super fun way!

*Please note! Risograph is a unique print-making technique. Falling somewhere in between silk-screen and photocopying, it is a process of laying ink colors down one layer at a time and it can be quite a finicky process! This sometimes can result in slight mis-registrations or subtle roller marks left by the machine. Rest assured I go through each print and only sell the ones I believe are of a high quality in terms of tidiness and color alignment. Small imperfections are a part of this very particular printing art form and should be embraced! Thank you for embracing them with me :-)
