Description
Noted photographer Michael Ansell did this screenprint, his only venture into printmaking, with Editions Press in San Francisco in 1984. He was working on a series of drawings he called "Aerial Situations - Comedies" and exhibiting at Foster White Gallery in San Francisco.
Ansell was commissioned by Editions Press to do this screen print based on this series, the only print he has done. The printing was done by the screenprinting workshop of T. Davis & B. Sebastian in San Francisco.
