Kristin Belew: "Benʻs Infinity"

Medium: Embellished Reproduction Print - Acrylic Paint and Prismacolors on Washi Rice Paper
Size: Framed size: 24.5" x 46".

Lāna`i artist Kristin Belew painstakingly embellished this life-size reproduction of her Gyotaku print with Prismacolors.

Gyotaku is a traditional Japanese style of fish printing where each original piece of art is taken right from the fish. Kristin applies acrylic paint to the actual fish then presses rice paper onto the specimen to receive the paint. She then adds in details! Each fish is eaten or used for bait afterwards.
