Song of a Bulbul

Pausing to perch on a delicately leafed branch, the bulbul makes a graphic statement in a mix of bold and muted colors. This mixed-media piece is created from an original photograph and is printed with archival pigment inks on cotton printmaking paper. Ishii highlights the image with colored pencils to create a painterly effect before affixing the print to a cradled wood panel with PVA. She coats the piece with wax to give the image a translucent quality, and the sides of the board are painted black and finished with clear acrylic—so framing is optional.

Ready to hang. Signed with title, date, medium, size, and edition number on the back of the panel.
