This print shows a bright orange, squiggly shape floating above a small pond. Below it, a person in an orange jacket sits on a log, holding a fishing rod. Trees with dark green leaves stand on either side, and the sky is pale blue with faint marks. The big orange blob looks like a giant, wobbly flame or maybe a balloon. The artist made it look soft and almost alive, even though it’s just ink on paper. Next, check out lithography to see how prints like this are made.
