Most of the work had more than 25 tones of colours/screen using Somerset Radiant and Fabriano papers, which brought to life the strokes of the artists. According to the judges, Marvel’s works have pushed, what screen printers often use as the reduction technique, far beyond its application, by creating stunningly realistic images in colour and tone. According to Marvel, the special feature was creating the gold colour in KG Subramanyam’s work. "Multiple applications of colours gradually builds what appears as gold, and it was quite challenging," said the team at Marvel.
