Woodcuts
In February i took a class to learn how to create woodcuts. It was inspiring and very different than anything I had tried before.
Woodcut etchings are printed from relief plates.
I create each image by hand carving the reverse of the image into a wood block.
The white areas have been carved out of the block while the black areas have been left intact for the ink to be applied and printed onto the paper.
