Announcement
Gyotaku fish printing is an ancient art form that originated in Japan in the early 1800s. It involves taking a rubbing of a freshly caught fish on mulberry paper, using non-toxic paints.
As an accomplished Gyotaku artist I create prints of the fish I catch while out on fishing trips. These prints capture the unique beauty and details of each individual fish, and are a beautiful way to preserve the memory of a successful fishing trip.

Frequently asked questions
Are your fish rubbings original or prints?
All my art work is original and handmade. Besides the calendars and T-shirts, I do not offer reproductions.
Why do some fish rubbings look alike?
A single fish can provide several rubbings. Although they may look alike, each rubbing is unique.
Can I get a small fish?
The fish rubbing art is life size and represents the actual size of the fish caught. I fish for deep sea fish which tend to be large in size.
Can I get my own Gyoataku fish rubbing?
Join me on a wilderness fishing trip and I will rub your catch for free!
Copyright Information
You may not reproduce or permit others to reproduce any art created by me, Warren Sellers, without prior written permission.
Where are the fish caught?
The majority of the fish are rubbed on a remote (secret) location on the west coast of Panama where I have been taking clients since the pandemic. Some fish are from Costa Rica, Tahiti and Galapagos.
