Woodcut Printmaking Techniques

The creation of traditional woodcut prints is based on a delicate devision of labor between three craftsmen - an artists, a wood carver and a print maker . If one of these craftsmen outshines or underperforms the others then a hight quality print will not be crated. These are artisans who master their own area in an unobtrusive yet dignified manner. It is when their supreme skills are harmonized that a woodcut print, far superior to that which could be produced by any one individual, is created.
