I took a class with Amy McGregor Radin in April of 2013 at the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Watertown, MA. I discovered a technique that brings together printmaking and watercolor painting: two of my favorite things. White line woodcut was developed in Provincetown, MA in 1915, and made famous by Blanche Lazell and a number of other artists who embraced this simple technique as an alternative to Japanese woodblock printing (which requires a separate block for each color).
Below is a new print entitled Evening Owl. I love the subtle gradations of color and the textures that are transferred from the wood.
Lisa: I loved the woodcuts on your latest blog. I see from the photos that you use watercolors from tubes, which probably permit a better image transfer than the dried cakes. Dad
Great prints Lisa! Your drawings and painting prowess are a perfect fit for this method.
Nice! Woodcuts are my favorite too.
John is available to play Wednesday June 30. We have arranged a ride for him. Please confirm.
