Hi All,

I know this is basic, but I'm having trouble finding an answer on the
interwebs.

Is Yasutomo Nori Paste
(http://www.dickblick.com/products/yasutomo-nori-paste/) the same as the
Nori normally mixed with pigments in moku hanga?

I'm building my kit, and I don't want to start with the wrong stuff.

Thanks,
Aaron

Welcome, Aaron.

The Yasutomo Nori Paste should be fine. Tokuriki Tomikiichiro used
the same brand in his studio in Kyoto in the late 70's. Go for it and
have fun!

Subject: Mystique Series - carving the next print
Posted by: Dave Bull

Haven't had much time for updating these progress pages, but here's a recent sequence of photos showing the first carving on one side of the next pair of prints.

As usual, if you are a collector, and don't want to 'spoil' the surprise of opening the package, then you had better leave now ... :-)

(This sequence of photos was shot quite casually, at different times of day, and the colour balance thus changes as we go along ... Apologies for that ...)

Here's the key block, with the hanshita pasted down, and before carving begins. (I have intentionally blurred out the area that will be print #4 ...) These all have clickable enlargements ...

And here's how it progressed ...
