Each edition is printed in my studio on Japanese handmade paper. The editions range from ten to thirty.

I began making woodcuts in 1988 using traditional oil inks. I was inspired by Ansei Uchimas’s Hanga woodcuts, in particular his luminous colors and their transparency.

Hanga is a Japanese woodcut print technique. The final print is the result of printing several carved blocks, some containing multiple areas of color.

The colors are water-based paints brushed on to the block. Damp paper is laid on the block and hand-rubbed with a baren. Barens are round, flat disks made of wood, plant fibers, plastic or metal. These are used to create different printing effects.

For prices of the prints please contact me.
