Finally had time to frame the new Riso print I printed last month at @ellistolsma.bsky.social ‘s studio ✨♥️ #risograph #retroillustration

i gave some zine workshops a while ago and i never posted the results anywhere. But zines are an amazing way to express feelings & talk about creating a community. This year i’m focusing a lot more on activism and that making art is a rebellion, a way of expressing yourself.

I'm setting up a big local riso poster project, where me and around 40 other artists will create and print riso protest posters. i think the recent 'world updates' have been worrying for a lot of us, and while i'm unable to change big world events I would like to start a local artist movement!!

I think riso is a very interesting way to make animation because it takes way longer than normal animation. Today, a lot of the processes in art are focused on being efficient but printing take all that away. The focus is a lot more on the process that way, and allows to make happy little mistakes.

i’ve been trying to get the weird goldish green color that i have in my sketch but it’s not doing it
