Description of Early autumn print and the Process

  • Medium: Woodblock print
  • Edition: Limited to 70 prints
  • Size: 19cm x 20cm
  • Signature: Hand signed

The process begins with the creation of an original black and white image, in this case trees. The image is then transferred onto blocks of wood. Each block is then carved to match the desired colours, ensuring precision in the final result. Each hue of the early autumn ink is delicately pressed onto Japanese paper, bringing the artwork to life with its unique charm.

While these prints don't come framed, I am readily available to provide expert advice on the most suitable framing options to complement your space. Upon request I am able to get a frame made for you so please contact me.

The Making of in Photos:

Getting the Negative image of trees transferred then carved ready to print on the other blocks for reference
Marking out the different colour blocks.
carving out the individual colours
Running experiments with varied thicknesses of early autumn inks and colours as well as introducing the scale pattern in the foreground. For that pattern I'm printing onto a block then re-printing that back onto the paper. A good way to sample pattern before going through the process of carving seperate blocks.
Experiments in different colour combinations. And yes, a lot of them fail haha.
Part way through the process. Playing with brown spots to start, before overlaying colours
Creating original one off mono prints from the blocks just for fun
Im happy here with the random patterns and textures being created
woodblock printing process broken down into stages showing the transfer of image and proofing process
A proof that I'm starting to get the hang of
