Relationship by Toshiyuki Fukuda

Relationship by Toshiyuki Fukuda. Size: MEDIUM 9 x 12 inches (23 x 30,5 cm.) in size and LARGE 16 x 20 inches (40,5 x 50,8 cm.). Giclée print of an original drawing. Technique: after drawing a rough sketch with pencil on a paper, Toshiyuki pastes tissue paper over it with medium and waits for it to dry. He then proceeds to color it with acrylic gouache and adds collage. Lastly, instant coffee is sprinkled on top, which is spread with water-based varnish, and coated as a final touch. Each print in this series of 25, comes numbered and signed with the date of printing.  Printed on artist- quality pigment and acid-free cotton paper. Unframed. While all prints come unframed, they all fit standard frame sizes and standard pre-cut mat sizes (read: you won’t ever need to pay for pricey custom framing).
