About the work Once
Once is a Javier Calleja print showing a large-headed character with blue eyes in a pink shirt marked ONCE. Fine, sketch-like lines describing the body contrast with smooth coloured areas of the face. The gaze and short clothing slogan define the image.
The work belongs to the paired Once / in my Life project. Publisher Avant Arte offered the prints separately or as a diptych; the complete phrase emerges when the two sheets are seen together. This card is for one print. The edition combines hybrid printing with layers of red screenprinted ink and varnish, finished with a bespoke artist blindstamp.

The artist and the work
Javier Calleja works with exaggerated proportions, expressive gazes and short phrases. In this pair, the words on the shirts connect two separate portraits while each retains its own palette and expression.
