Label Text:
Artist's Process noted in catalogue: The original sketch was painted on translucent waxed paper with transparent, water soluable dyes (both fragile materials). Since a page is frequesntly turned and handled, I have printed this edition using translucent matt mylar and transparent silk screen inks, very durable material which still retain the delicate quality of the original.

Subjects:
screen prints; Silk
