JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINTMAKING

Learn to make a Japanese woodblock print! The workshop begins with a hands-on printing demonstration from a prepared block using; water-based pigments, kento registration, and pressing with a baren – all hallmarks of this Japanese process dating back to the 17th century. We will then move into designing, carving, and printing our own designs with thorough demonstrations along the way. Please bring a 5” x 7” cartoon sketch for your one-color woodblock print. Sample designs will be available for beginners, advanced printmakers may use more than one color by using both sides of the block. All tools and materials are provided; please bring carving tools if you have a set. All levels are welcome.
