"Multicolor Japanese Water-Based Woodblock Printing
with Emily Hoisington
Six Tuesdays: January 19, 26, February 2, 9, 16, 23; 6-9pm
Great for beginners

Make a multicolor woodblock print from start to finish while
learning a water-based, portable printing method that is easy to
practice at home. Learn special effects such as gradations and
textures. Experiment to make each print different, or work to
produce consistent prints for a small edition. Supply fee
includes a set of five Japanese carving tools. :Multicolor

Subject: Carving tools - video
Posted by: Julio

Okay, so here's another video clip from my studio, this time is about the tools I use to carve wood blocks.

Note: You will see a small handcrafted box where I keep my tools after use and where I also save a few wood chips from every block carved. This is my way to pay respect to the wood.

Subject: David's e-book "Your First Print"
Posted by: Julio


Came across this article on David's new ebook at "eBooks Just Published".

"Remembering back to the days when I was first exploring this craft, I have created the book that I desperately wanted back then, but which didn?t exist - a book that included everything that I needed to know. I have tried to create a highly practical and focussed guidebook that will take you - step by step - completely through the process of creating your first print, answering (hopefully) all the questions you will ask along the way.?

Rich Media: The eBook contains approximately 60 ?pages? (each one actually a wide-screen ?spread?), as well as many photos in high-resolution format. In addition to the standard text+illustration material, it also contains numerous audio and video clips showing every important stage of the printmaking process.
