Beach Body

A buff penguin
He really print three colors showing above penguin on the beaches of Antarctica.

Beach Body is my version of a buff penguin on the shores of Antarctica. It is a relief print made from three carved plates a blue, orange, and black on Mohawk superfine.

Sintra plates used to make each color layer in Beach Body

The plates are carved on Sinatra plastic plates. I only have black relief printing ink and I printed them all in black and colored them in Photoshop. This is a digital print made from scanning traditionally carved and printed relief blocks. It is a 5 x 5“ image on 6 x 6“ paper.

I am happy with the simplicity of the shapes and the simple read of the image.
