Each piece is hand-printed on an analog printing press with oil-based inks on archival paper. The circle is printed first with a “rainbow roll” on a monotype plate. The linocut Castro sign is then printed as an overlay to the circle. The process creates a beautiful embossment of both the sign, and the circle.
**Each piece has some variation given the hand-printed nature of the work. Actual colors may vary slightly from the web photos. Artwork is sold as a loose print *without* a mat or frame (mat in photo is shown as a visual reference point.
