The Mixografia printing process produces highly textured, three dimensional surfaces. According to Engberg, Ruscha created the imagery by burnishing the letterforms into a wax plate. Various grasses he collected were pressed into the wax, then a copper printing plate was made from the wax impression. Engberg 221.
