Risograph
Two-ink overprinting, print grain and restrained color.
Prompt
Two ink layers, one graphic image
Large shapes make grain, slight registration shifts and overlapping color easy to see. The pear print brings these relationships into a close still life; the landscape distributes them across a wider scene.
These are generated interpretations of a two-ink printed appearance. For a physical edition, prepare separations and test the actual inks, paper and registration with the printer.
