Your speaking process is engaging, informative and minimal. The subject matter is clearly defined, well-lit and is held at hand in perfect timing. Thank you for that. No idiotic soundtrack, galloping through important ideas or pandering with disruptive pleas for subscriptions. This was very enjoyable, relaxing and educational.

Incredible case study of Kirchner’s approach to multi coloured woodblock printing. I’m inspired. I tried a similar process to produce a study of a Japanese woodblock print from the Meiji era of a woman sitting in a hot pool bathing. It is only a two colour print but your video tutorial has provided me the key to understanding three, four, five plus coloured compositions. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and process. From New Zealand - Arohanui.

I liked the still life composition made with the wooden block and the cooking spoon on the table. This made rise memories of my grandmother's kitchen where a lot of very important action took place over the years. Baking, cooking and artwork making. Now all is gone... but memories remain and got ignited by this vision.

Thank you so much for these instructional videos. I studied lithography in the late 80s and always wanted my own press. But there are so many options for people who cannot or do not wish to own a press. Excellent teaching. I understood everything very clearly.

Another great video, thank you. This is the first time I’ve seen how woodcut works and you explained it very well. I like how the image looks with just black and green too- I suppose this is one of the advantages to printing- that you can vary the colours with multiple prints. I’d love to see a video by yourself on screen printing and also on registration options.

I'll second the motion to cheer your quiet, detailed explanation of one artist's techniques and preferences in each of these videos. (So good to have your VG teaching mode and without music, special effects, whiz-bang graphics.) Now, I'm interested in Die Brucke, 'cause---although I saw it mentioned in a half dozen other videos---but you made it worth studying via the works of EK.

I watched this video again today ( I watched it previously last year when I was under pressure to get some coursework finished…so I enjoyed it much more today ) you really explain this printing technique very well. Are the woodblocks made out of some sort of plywood? Maybe someone could recommend where is a good place to get the gouges/wood chisels suitable for woodblock? Thanks for posting.

Hi, I have been trying to find a good way to transfer images to the blocks/ linoleum. I sometimes glue tracing paper onto them, sometimes simply use carbon paper to trace it. What techniques do you use to get a good crisp image transfer? Thanks.
@mmedeuxchevaux Жыл бұрын
excellent. what i don't understand is how you knew where to place the paper from top to bottom. I see the registration mark (?) on the right but how did you accurately center the paper from top to bottom?
@TraceMeek2 жыл бұрын
I love this! Well done. What kind of wood blocks are you using, and how does that compare with the experience of carving linoleum? I would imagine that you have to sharpen your tools more often! I look forward to trying this technique.

Excellent video of this technique. I am just stating to learn about the whole colour printing process and vids like these are so informative. It's had to believe that someone like Kirchner would go through the huge task of carving the blocks just for one print.

This is my second video I've come across made by you; the other being the picasso reduction lino. I'm only two minutes into this one but I stopped watchung to ask you some questions. Excuse me if you answer them in the video, I just couldn't wait as im so insistent on knowing how you transfered your image to the lino and with what did you use to get such a good transfer?? Also you said in the last video it was oil printing ink you used. Any particular brand you recommend? I don't think you're one to answer questions in this comment section, but I hope you do find yourself at the keyboard. 😀 Thanks again for making these videos! They're very clear and concise, and they feed the creativity in me. Understanding some techniques the Masters used in relief printing is knowledge that is only limited by imagination! Thanks

Response from Christina Taylor: I transferred the image to the Munch block using white Saral transfer paper and to the Picasso block using a Xerox transfer method (using acetone and pressure from the press to transfer the photocopy image). There are many types of oil-based inks available. In these videos I used Hanco Handschy Litho inks. I hope that helped answer your questions, and I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the videos!
