Woodcut 2006

Edition 20

Block: Cherry

Paper: Beechgrove Paperworks hand-made (natural fiber hickory bark)
Process: A standard rainbow roll print
Image: The "floating world" was the entertainment world in old Tokyo. However every time I hear the expression I think of figures floating in space...or wood grain!

Process:
Woodcuts and wood engravings are made by drawing an image on a block of wood, usually cherry in my case, then carving out the negative spaces. After carving, what is left is a big "stamp" of the desired image. I roll ink with a roller over the woodcut, place a piece of handmade paper on the inked block, apply pressure and transfer the image on the paper.

All my woodcuts are made in limited editions, signed and numbered in pencil by the artist.
