This print is insane. Take a look at this-
IT’S ON RICE PAPER! Just beautiful.
International terrorist arms dealer, or slave to the torments of unrequited love? Who says a modern chrome-headed man can’t be both? This stunning seven color, artist pulled screenprint from Jacob Borshard’s
’80s Ukiyo-e’ series casts Destro in a moment of tender contemplation among fresh sprung cherry blossoms in his garden. This print is a follow up to Jacob’s amazing
The Great Pony Rebellion and
The Sinking of the Oruko Ship. The Deluxe details on this print include platinum-tone metallic ink, a subtle watermark Kimono pattern and a split fountain on Destro’s cherry blossom clipping. Printed on pearlescent metallic paper and
limited to 25 prints in the standard edition. Also offered in a separate Super Premium edition of
only 8 Ginwashi Japanese rice paper prints.
The poem reads:
Cherry Blossom
Speaks to Destro
‘Tell Baroness
You love her!’
Also, Jacob presents his very first Gigposter! For those of you who don’t know- Jacob slings a mean ukulele, and will be performing in just a few short days here in Austin-
This two color wonder was done up analog from start to finish, drawn by Jacob directly on the films used to burn the screens- Now those are some Sharpie skills! The poster measures 18″ by 24″ and comes on ultra-fancy pearlescent metallic paper. A mega-limited edition of only 12 signed and numbered artist-pulled prints are offered in two colorways: ‘Kawasock-me Green’ and ‘Infra-matic Blue’, both with ‘Fresh Bruise Plum’ linework.
Both of these prints are available RIGHT NOW in the Jacob Borshard section of the Nakatomi store!
