Pacific Albacore Tuna at 50 MPH - Original

This 28 lb Albacore Tuna was caught by hand jigging, 40 miles off of the Oregon Coast. I hand printed this Gyotaku, (or fish rubbing) directly from the Albacore on MA rice paper with Gamblin Fine Art Inks, in September of 2017.

Printed on Mulberry paper with archival inks, and then mounted on a FSC birch panel with black lacquered edges and sealed with a matte varnish and UV coating.
