Fishing is so much more than just throwing a line in the water. It’s time with friends and family. It’s anticipation and excitement. It’s the colour when a fish bursts from the water, with chromed up flanks as the light hits its scales. It’s a fat, flaky slab of white flesh with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon. 

Salty Bones was born from this love of fishing and the ocean. We use the ancient Japanese art of Gyotaku to capture all that entails, applying water-based inks to impress real fish onto traditional Japanese rice paper. Details are then added to the print, and the fish is washed, filleted and enjoyed.
