  • TWENTY CONCEPTS IN WOODBLOCK PRINTING, Merlyn Chesterman, Rod Nelson

    TWENTY CONCEPTS IN WOODBLOCK PRINTING

    Merlyn Chesterman, Rod Nelson

     

    This inspiring book introduces twenty concepts for printmakers to use to enhance their work ranging from abstraction to composition, and from symbolism to boundaries. It focuses on woodblock printmaking but the principles it covers can be applied to all graphical and pictorial arts. Mainly pictorial, it includes fine examples of finished work from leading makers and students, and is a remarkable and thought-provoking addition to any maker's library.

     

     

    Signed copies will be available to buy in the gallery and online.
