woodcut on gampi paper

h: 25 w: 20 d: 1 (cms).

My woodcut, titled "Black Shoes," was created using long-grain pearwood blocks and traditional carving tools. I also used a sharp point to engrave fine lines into the wood. The print was hand-printed with letterpress ink using a Japanese baren on heavyweight Gampi tissue paper mounted on Stonehenge paper. I employed two colours—black and grey—to achieve a broader range of light and dark tones. The shoes were a gift for my first solo show and have accompanied me to various exhibition openings and gallery events over the past 25 years.

woodcut on gampi paper

h: 10 w: 15 d: 1 (cms).

"Emerald Lake Winter" was created following a visit to Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada. The work utilizes long-grain cherry woodblocks and traditional carving tools. The print was produced by hand using Cranfield Traditional Relief ink, a Japanese baren, and a wooden spoon. It was printed on gampi paper, which was subsequently mounted on Stonehenge paper. The artwork incorporates two opaque colours, enabling a broad spectrum of light and dark tones. "Emerald Lake Winter" is inspired by the Japanese tradition of Ukiyo-e woodblock printmaking.
