Moku Hanga (moku=wood hanga=print)


This is a woodblock print by Lynita Shimizu- http://shimizuwoodcuts.com/ -- I loved her use of color in her work-- every print had a different array of vibrant colors-

Her work is very inspiring- I loved looking through her gallery because her work is diverse, yet all in the same medium. It showcased the fact that you can (if you so choose) stick to one path of art and still create a widely diverse collection of images. Plus, I am in love with the idea of woodblock printing, I just haven't gotten there yet-- I feel like creating something .....
