Updated: Aug 5

See how to print different colors one next to another with clean edges thanks to the jigsaw printing technique!

I recently submitted this print to the “International Miniprint Cantabria” competition. In this blog post, I am showing the steps for making it and highlight the "jigsaw printing" technique.


I have added a new projet page to this site where you can read about the artistic choices I made and understand its complex but poetic title, "Et le soleil mourant, sur un ciel riche et sombre"…


The theme of the competition is “the sea and the lighthouses”. The submissions must be in a printed form and be small 20 x 20 cm. (7,8” x 7,8”) maximum and the hundreds of submitted works will be exhibited from 1st September to 31st December 2021 in Santander (Spain).
