Gal Ram

Continuing the series that Galzelle began, Gal Ram is one of the first screenprints produced after Vrooooom Press relocated to Austin, Texas. After I gained access to a proper studio space and worked at improving my printing skills via an internship in the field, I was eager to try a more complicated print. This edition’s texture comes from a sampling of wood grain, which was then translated into several stochastic dot patterns to form the background of the figure. I really like the resulting effect, and I think this print does a better job than Galzelle of bringing the source material into its own.

I plan to continue this series on and off until it reaches its natural conclusion.

This print is a 5 color screenprint on 100# Cougar Opaque Cover Natural. It measures approximately 20″ x 26″.
