I am happy to announce my work is included in:

Printopolis Conference at Open Studio, Toronto
October 21 to 24, 2010
Beyond the Basics Woodblock Exhibition with DARIUZ KACA, Poland; BARBARA WYBOU, Canada; EVA PIETZCKER, Germany; DANIEL HEYMAN, USA; MIKE LYON, USA; APRIL VOLLMER, USA; ELIZABETH FORREST, Canada; JACOMIJN DEN ENGELSEN, Netherlands; TUULA MOILANEN, Finland/Japan
Mokuhanga, Beyond the Basics Demonstration
Demonstration with Elizabeth Forrest
Location: The Japanese Paper Place
This demonstration goes beyond the basics of mokuhanga and offers the unique perspectives of two experienced practitioners. Vollmer will demonstrate the use of kento registration notches cut directly in the block and how to repeatedly print multiple blocks to illustrate the process of creating an image that is larger and more complex than can be made from straightforward printing from a single set of blocks. Forrest will demonstrate pigment layering and bokashi-the blending of colours and values-recommending various approaches to overcome printing challenges, such as accurate registration and use of binders to permit crisp, separated colour superimposition. This demo is relevant to printmakers with some previous knowledge of mokuhanga.

UPCOMING: June 7 to 12, 2011
International Mokuhanga Conference in Kyoto and Awaji, Japan
I am helping organize this conference, which will be a unique opportunity for woodblock artists. The conference is still in the planning stages. Please check the website: www.mokuhanga.jp which will be updated as the schedule is confirmed.

Send Message: To this poster

I want to make woodblocks
prints and was on Baren Mall and McClain's viewing Japanese cutting tools and
paper that I can barely afford, when a discussion erupted on Baren about Moku hanga exchanges.

   Ms Arango Diener submitted - "A bottle of sumi and a $1.98 tube of
rice paste is all it takes; oh, and a couple of sheets of Masa". I am
still digesting the stark truth of this suggestion ...while cutting a design on
a bit of Pine with an Xacto knife.  As
Shakespeare once said "The print's the thing". Thank you, Maria.

Woo and Hoo!  I sold the woodcut I entered into the SCAA Art Classic XXI this year.  The reception and awards ceremony was today.


I'm happy it went to a good home, a horse lover with her own horse.  8-]
