The Heart of the Sky
Color Photograph
Created by
Yuko Ishii
Exploring the tranquil beauty of a backlit bird in graceful flight, this mixed-media piece is an original photograph printed with archival pigment inks on cotton printmaking paper. Ishii highlights the image with colored pencils to create a painterly effect and affixes 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.
