~With Hiroki Morinoue

In this class participants will rediscover the 17th Century Japanese woodblock printing process. It's delicate color and painterly applications combine with the strength and clarity of the woodcut line. This printmaking style comes with its own unique vocabulary. The use of water based materials and simple tools makes this a desirable addition to any artist's repertoire.
Morinoue will lead discussions on image making throughout the workshop. He is well known for the dedication, guidance and technical virtuosity. Projects will be done in a manageable scale to allow the participant to explore and experiment carving and inking techniques while creating a multi-color woodblock. Some relief printing experience will be helpful.
