Tuna (Skipjack) Fish Printing Replica
Skipjack Tuna Fish Printing Replica
This flexible tuna fish replica (7 inch small skipjack tuna replica) features one side of the fish; the reverse is flat. To make a fish print, simply ink the fish and roll on paper to “capture” the species as a print. When finished, replicas can be easily cleaned with soapy water. Fish printing, the Japanese art of Gyotaku, is an excellent way to combine science and art! We also offer a variety of washable block inks, ink rollers, and rice paper to enhance your fish printing activities.
