How to make a wood engraving

[@cfinlay6428]

"Not bad" typical English understatement, I think it is excellent. Very nice work. Thank you for posting this video I found it very instructive.

[@derekpercy7787]

Absolutely beautiful works and brilliantly explained - Thank you so much for sharing 🌈

[@locandro1]

What praise can I give that no one else has?...Except maybe that so much important and helpful information is communicated so clearly in a mere 6 minutes.

[@chrisosborn3040]

Wow! Wonderful to see someone who has really mastered their art and can pass it on in easy to understand language and an excellent demonstration.

[@jandrasco2498]

Being a former Intaglio printer I really enjoyed this. Takes me back to watching the Engravers working on the plates .

[@edrandomed]

Whoa, that was amazing from selecting the image, to carving to printing. I enjoyed knowing about the tools as well. Thank you.

[@iac4357]

There are two pieces of Art here. The Block, AND the Print !

[@lizidane78]

Nice to watch the birth of a lovely engraving

[@homeschooledchimp905]

So far, the most instructional video on tool use I've seen. Thanks!!

[@vinceskinner9357]

love your very calm manner. Pleasant to watch. Thanks for the content

[@alierem4266]

This work is a source of calm and serenity, although many others have experienced frustration when things slip away from their expectations.

[@calum3728]

The wood block engraving itself is a thing of beauty.

[@rebeccariel2872]

Lovely little nuances about the tools (and their history), techniques and effects -- that are missing in many instructional videos. Well done!

[@sousiago]

I just finished reading Susie Hodge's "The short story of art" and came here to understand how woodcut is made. Great explanation, thanks!

[@jst6376]

This is great, and just what I needed for my introductory art history students, thank you!

[@vfxsquad511]

Final Out gave me goose bumps. Very well done !!!

[@isabellasoares7041]

This video is superb! I learned so much! And the artist is AMAZING

[@retsubanires]

are you single, m'lady?

[@alexdominguez4923]

LOL^ 💀

[@scott-ish404]

My favourite kind of printing now shown in detail. Thank you so much!

[@danielesabbatini991]

What a lovely engraving! I really enjoyed whatching this video. Greetings from a Marches inhabitant.

[@BobSeal]

Great video. Thank you Anne Desmet RA for the valuable information. Best Wishes from Australia.

[@brendafine6840]

Anne you will remember that I have two of your unique collages, one the leaning tower and the other a round building with a moat. Good to see you in real life in this KZbin. Excellent description of the process. You pictures are hanging in my home in :Los Angeles. Best, Leon Fine

[@Aelinnia]

Excellent description of the different types of carving tools. The best I've seen. Thanks!

[@jayroland9481]

Absolutely stunning Madame, you make it look so easy. What a wonderful skill to have.

[@kerrym5424]

Beautiful. There is something special about woodcut engravings!

[@AvitalShtap]

Wow, I think the illustration turned out BEAUTIFUL, so bright and detailed and fantastic! Also love how even her shirt fits the aesthetic:)

[@AvitalShtap]

I mean the black and white squiggly one that looks like a woodcut!

[@paulbanerjee2078]

Wow! I am speechless with the absolutely splendid result. I didn't know anything about wood engraving until I saw your video today. I am writing a series of articles on woodworking and, wood engraving is one of the topics that I have to write about. This video tells me everything I need to know to explain what wood engraving is. Awesome video and great work!

[@phoebesativa4011]

thoroughly absorbed watching you create this. Thank you for sharing

[@robertovasani]

Amazing!! I am a huge fan of Gustave Doré, now I understand better how much work went into his art. Thank you

[@donaldoarmand212]

beautiful artwork by a lovely teacher and artist!

[@rorylaubscher3208]

Thank you so much. I've always been a huge fan of Gustav Dorè's work and I've never understood how it was created. Thank you for filling me in.

[@BobbySpiessVienna]

Amazing skills! All of these old school, haptic artforms makes digital stuff look like just poor and hollow.

[@JaskaranSingh-hv2kt]

I love these kind of artworks

[@vanmarsdesign]

Wow! Beautiful work.

[@thernly]

Thank you so much for this outstanding video. I'm trying to learn endgrain woodblock engraving, and I know of no one who does it. Proper woodblock material to engrave and information about tools and engraving technique are in short supply. This brief video is the most helpful resource I've found anywhere. Please produce more like this. Hearing the artist's voice describe what she's doing as she works is wonderful.

[@susancoles7337]

loved this and the print too.

[@jeffcrist2977]

I want that press! Very good work. Inspiring. I'm making a move from gallery art to illustration, and this vid is very helpful. Thanks!

[@esramirezart]

Wow, I just can't say thank you enough for creating and sharing such a wonderful video. I am searching for as much information as possible that I can find on the art of wood engraving; and this video is by far the most comprehensive and helpful video I have come across. Wonderful video and spectacular wood engraving created. I would love to see more videos on wood engraving as well as other traditional printmaking techniques from Royal Academy of Arts in the future.

[@royalacademy]

Thank you Efrin! We're pleased you enjoyed it. Are there any particular printmaking techniques you'd like to see us explore?

[@esramirezart]

Thank you for your reply! I would love to see more wood engraving techniques, perhaps by additional artists, that would be really nice. I would also find it interesting to see Japanese wood block carving and printing by The Royal Academy of Arts.

[@royalacademy]

We actually have a video on Japanese woodblock printing already! Here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZawcqh_etd_ndU Enjoy.

[@esramirezart]

Wow, thank you so much! I am very impressed!!

[@nadimaarahimii4073]

Very beautiful and wonderful!

[@vernonrobinson7470]

This reminds me of Bewick's woodcuts. This lady is putting woodblocks back on the art map--where they should be.

[@gawni1612]

OMG such talent!

[@LinoCrafts]

Hey can i ask you where did u getting from your wood plates.and what kind of wood is best for that?thnx

[@fbpliegorrivero8869]

What kind of wood is recommended for this type of work? Would it have to be treated in some way before engraving?

[@BannedIP]

Brilliant work! I didn't knew how it was made, thanks for sharing!

[@MrRupertwatson]

That is truly amazing .

[@pragyajha5968]

[@kasperchristensen8416]

Very, very impressive work! Albrecht Dürer would have been proud 😉

[@alierem4266]

Although AD is said to have farmed out the cutting process to others, after designing his work.

[@SimaKumari-oe8vo]

"Not bad" what This is freakishly Magnificent

[@SuperMilocat]

Amazing!

[@tigerpisces5506]

Great detailed instructional video. Most never mention the tools used. If we knew the tools to use? Why would we watch?

[@bluehorse3236]

Really beautiful job !

[@janosipacsjanos1557]

Fantastic art congratulations

[@robhead22]

Lovely voice

[@maheshprabhu1557]

Receive Greetings...!!! Beautiful art and work process too.want to know about type of wood,this black colour,tools and all the process.hope I will receive the knowledge from all of you... Regards, Mahesh(Mumbai)

[@xman6717]

OMG!!!! That is just so amazing!!! The reason I'm here is to find out about wood carving technique. If you folks think what is done here is fantastic. Look up....Gustave Dore. His art work is wood engraved!!! His details in his wood carving images ....totally mind boggling.

[@rinaldosspecialitycoffeete2825]

bravissimo xxx

[@richardbutler9692]

Just a question: What if you painted the wood block in white ink instead of black so that when you traced onto the wood, the graphite would show up without having to retrace over it?

[@pitaoxoo]

That's actually possible. For instance I preffer to draw directly in the wood using a Sharpie or something similar.

[@geewhillikers6117]

♥

[@irenedevore]

Can you suggest to me where I can purchase the tools you used. I'm very much interested in engraving.

[@fawazrob3542]

Is the distorted perspective intentional?

[@alicjaor.9093]

wooow super !

[@florencekho3574]

wow!!!

[@abundantharmony]

What is that ink roller made of?

[@7alexcool7]

What kind of wood did you used for this work ? Thanks .

[@royalacademy]

HI Alexandru, this is Boxwood.

[@user-qq9qi5xw2r]

What type of ink or paint do you think is best to use?

[@ishankpandiya5416]

what type of press is used in woodcut?

[@marzanneslabbertbloemfonte2252]

Hi! Which type of wood do you use?

[@dantecarnevale533]

Cool! Uou!!! Show!!
