Happy Hans presents Risograph printed reproductions of drawings by Barcelona un based Canadian artist @michaelswaney These drawings are a fast and direct approach to the hand motif, also known from Swaney's large scale paintings. "I thought we could call it Happy Hans or Happy Hands. Happy Hans was a mascot for my home town in Kimberley Bc, and he was a beer yielding yodeler in liederhosen who would appear from some window doors on a giant cuckoo clock in town. You put coins in and he comes out and sings you a little yodel. This could be a cool homage for the hand drawings maybe."
