Curious thoughts on the Pearlescent paper for the Delort, I have the first screen print of Seasons and really like it but wondering about this paper as I don't have anything printed on pearlescent paper. I think it will pop but don't if it looks gimmicky? Thanks.

If it's anything like the paper from an Emek QOTSA gig print I owned from a few years back, I'd say you're ok that it's not gonna feel too gimmicky.

It's very subtle. Not sure if you ever saw it, but it's a lot like the pearl paper that Jay Shaw's The Neon Demon was printed on.

Haven't seen it in person. But if subtle might be really nice especially with the "environmental" elements. I liked Seasons more than I expected when I picked it up, might try for this to see how it compares. Appreciate the response.

I really wish that collaboration print was half the size and a letterpress. I'd be all over it.
