Inky fun with riso printing

The 1980s gave us a lot to be thankful for; Pac-Man, the mixed tape, Jem and the Holograms, and the risograph printer.

The speed and simplicity of this printing technique lends itself to experimental print making using bold shapes and vibrant colours. And as it uses soy inks, it has a low environmental impact.

I created these prints at Risotto Studio in Glasgow and a workshop by Workhorse Press as part of Graphic Design Festival Scotland.
