Description
I'm proud to be part of the Topo Copy Expo - Risografia project, organised by El Topo and Sam Scarpulla, that opened the DOK area in Gent. A fantastic party place in the docklands where all kinds of artists go wild in empty factory buildings and even a newly built arena.They asked a bunch of talented people ( amongst them Ephameron, Jan Van Der Veken, Zosen, Thierry Jaspart, Mark Goss, .. ) to make a 2 color-print and this is my addition to the risograph series. It's for sale and limited to a series of 100 signed prints.
Jangojim is my pseudonym as an artist.

That's really quite delightfully funny c:
Geography teachers the world over should use this to educate people about volcanoes. I'm sure I would have learnt a lot more in geography if that had been the case.

thx, man ! I wanted to keep it simple, because it's the first time I tried the 2 layer technique for a print ( and it was actually a bit complicated for me 
in retrospect maybe there could've been some more detail, but I'm happy with the results.

Why is it complicated? How does it work?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, it doesn't look that way and I have to admit the design is fairly simple, but I had to come up with a drawing and then think of how the drawing would come out in 3 colours, printed in two times, a red and a blue layer of ink. red, blue and brownish where the red and blue colours overlap. I wasn't sure yet when I started drawing it, so still experimented in photoshop.
I drew the red parts first and then the blue parts on another paper. I assembled them together in photoshop and it took me some time to clean up, match the pieces and finetune everything. I guess you could also draw just everything on one page and then put everything in different layers in photoshop, but I did it my way

Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. It sounds like a very complicated and challenging process, though it's quite fascinating as well. In a way, it forces you to think like a chess player, anticipating your next move and the long-term consequences of it, which quenches your spontaneity but forces you to think about every single detail. Well, obviously, you managed to make it work.

thx ! and no problem. I really really advice you to make a piece with different layers like this. it's not superdifficult, but it has a huge impact on how I think right now about composition and producing a piece and I think it's gonna prove me handy in the future.
exactly, it forces you to think like a chess player, well said !

if it ilustration comment/inspiration to eruption vulkan on iceland?
extra work draw/colours/subject ! what technik do you used to made this print?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's not a direct comment or inspired by the eruption on iceland, I just like volcano's and dinosaurs
I did not make the physical print, but it's a risograph. a risograph is printed by a risograph printer.
It's like a normal printer, but you add one ink jet ( red ) first and print what's red. then you change the ink jet into a blue one and print again on the same paper, now the blue layer.
where the blue and red overlap a brown colour appears.
