Our Logo
Our company logo "Fossil Fish" is a registered trademark of Natural Investigations Company, Inc. The original artwork "Fossil Fish" was created by Janet Moore in 1993 at Fresno City College. Janet used a printmaking technique called Intaglio. Starting with a copper plate, she engraved the image using an etching needle. Then she rolled brown ink over the plate and then rubbed it off with a cloth, leaving ink only in the incisions in the plate. A damp piece of thick yellow paper was put over the plate and then the plate and paper were run through a printing press, which transferred the ink from the recesses of the plate to the paper.
