James Rizzi  (1950 -2011)  Studied Fine Arts at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. He came up with the idea of 3D multiples now mostly associated with his name when shipped, having taken classes in painting, printmaking and sculpturing, he had to hand in grade work for all three subjects, but only had time for doing one. So he created to etching, printed it twice, handcolored it, and mounted parts of the one print on top of the other, using wire as a Means of adding depth. Having received good grades from all three teachers, he stuck with the idea and developed it Further to a form of 3D art.
