Jeff Soto Skull of Life Art Print Release

Jeff Soto has an amazing piece of work releasing Wednesday. This marks a more personal direction in his creative process.

Here is Jeff in his own words discussing his new approach:

I’m on a quest to create more personal art prints so I made a decision last year to take on less gig poster assignments. I have always loved the art and process of screenprinting- the layers, the colors, the linework and the shapes! These fine art prints will not have “Metallica” or “Primus” or “Pearl Jam” on them but I am creating them with the same artistic spirit and care. These prints are for my fans, and I’m hoping some of friends I have met along the way making gig posters will like them too!

This is “Skull of Life”. It celebrates Spring’s colorful flower blooms, bugs, bees, butterflies and the wild growth of Nature. It is inspired visually by my own plant collection of cacti and succulents.

There will be two editions.

“Skull of Life”, 18” x 24”, 7 color screenprint on Madero Beach 100lb paper. The print is signed, embossed and numbered in an edition of 100. Printed by Industry in Austin, TX.

“Skull of Life” celebrates Spring’s colorful flower blooms, bugs, bees, butterflies and the wild growth of Nature. It is inspired visually by Soto’s love of plants.

“Skull of Life”, 20” x 28”, hand embellished 7 color screenprint on 300gsm Industry Recycled Rag paper with deckled edge. This print is signed, embossed, titled and numbered in a small edition of only 10 prints. Printed by Industry in Austin, TX.

This is a very special edition of “Skull of Life”. Each print is hand embellished by Soto and completely unique! These are printed on an amazing paper called Industry Recycled Rag. Created by famed papermaker Yama Ploskonka of Papel Texano, this 300gsm handmade paper was created for Industry Print Shop’s 10 year anniversary. Ploskonka took 500 sheets of screen printed test prints and created a beautiful recycled cotton rag paper. No two sheets are alike- each contains small remnants of past screenprints, each shred, rich with its own history! Every sheet is watermarked with Industry Editions & Papel Texano marks (pic before hand embellishment and signing).
