Learn how to achieve multiple colors in a woodblock image with perfect registration through the traditional technique of Japanese woodblock printing. This workshop is an introduction to the printing process mokuhanga, which uses water-based pigments (or sumi ink), a kento registration method, and hand printing with a baren. Instruction covers tools, materials, the carving sequence, and printing methods associated with this process. All participants have the opportunity to carve and print a two-color image. One of the wonderful aspects of this process is that it does not require a press, or a large workspace!
