Zen Mind II - Medium P09427-P00047 and lush greensThis mixed media piece features an original photograph printed with archival pigment inks on cotton printmaking paper; artist Yukoi Ishii then highlights the image with colored pencils to create a painterly effect and affixes the print to a cradled wood panel with non toxic adhesive. She then coats the piece with wax to give the image a translucent quality, paints the sides of the board black, and finishes it with a clear protective acrylic. Signed
