'Seasons' was made by myself and students from my Advanced Japanese Woodcut class. Inspired by Miho Kawase, using hand ground sumi ink and Gampi papers.
International Mokuhanga Conference, Echizen, Japan
I attended the 2024 IMC in Echizen, Japan. My work 'Under the Bridge' was selected for the Juried Exhibition and I showed my work in the Open Portfolio. I participated in workshops including traditional paper making in a village where they have been making paper for 1500 years. I also made sumi ink sticks in Nara and attended lectures from master printers of Mokuhanga from around the world.
