Fish Printing aka.....Gyotaku Fishing Rubbing
Please Note: at the end of this post is a
video so you can watch how this is done.
Here is how our Play Day went......Enjoy!
After our resident fish printer, Kathi, gave us a demo...
Nancy jumped right in to give this a try!
We are printing from this Fish today...
So much
detail on this fish print.
We are using
cotton fabric.
This is
Kathi out on the Pacific Ocean here in Oregon
After the real fish printing was done...
We cracked open the box of
rubber replica fish...
Kathi purchased these from Dick Blick online
A large variety of rubber
replicas...
The
rubber replicas also print with lots of detail...
Nancy printed fish on a piece of sun print fabric
Nancy also created
place mats for fish dinners...
She applies
craft paint to a bass replica fish...
You can see the
Bass place mat in the center of this image.
These are
Nancy's fish prints for the day.
Kathi tried white acrylic paint to see how her fish would
print on very dark fabrics......they show up quite well.
Kathi printed the rubber frogs.....they print really well.
I printed several rubber fish on a piece of ice dyed fabric.
We plan to teach this as a
