You can use shoji paper and India ink. Some of the sumi inks are toxic so be careful if you plan on eating the fish. Traditionally color was added afterwards with watercolors. I've heard before that gyotaku was invented to settle bets between fishing samurai over who caught the biggest fish So cool to see this here. I'm of Japanese descent and I grew up fishing on the Cahaba River.
What stunning prints you showed & thank you for showing the technique

So beautiful. Love your style
Fantastic
What paper did you use?
Amazing! Can you use acrylic pain and do you need to cut it if you can.
You can use Tempera. I don't think acrylic will work.
“Pain?” Is that supposed to be “paint?”
@@keirfarnum6811 no. Have you never heard of acrylic pain?
Best ones
How was the background done?
