This print is a customized wedding gift. It is a two color water-based silkscreen printed on 100% cotton paper. The print is approximately 28x28 in diameter. The project entailed photographing everyone's hand at the wedding as I asked each person to make their own gesture of love. All of the hands were individually edited in photoshop, with varying detail, to create the graphics. The hands overlapping each other in a circle symbolize unity and life itself.
The lace-like translucent gold that slightly overlays the inner wreath was inspired by images I've seen of a microscopic orchid root, and was hand painted on mylar to create a film for the screen. The orchid historically symbolizing strength, transformation, love and beauty.
This is my favorite customized project to date, and I hope to continue experimenting with different custom hand projects.
