Reimagined Japanese Classics - original handmade prints

This collection includes my own handcrafted prints based on existing Japanese designs by artists such as Hiroshige, Koson, and Narumi. These are traditional designs that I love for their simplicity, balance and beauty. I have recreated my own versions by carving new blocks and printing my own interpretations of them.

Creating Original Prints

Every original print is created by hand in my Kirkcudbright studio using a variety of printmaking techniques including woodblock, linocut and stencilling. From carving the design to mixing inks and pressing each impression, every stage of the process is carried out slowly and thoughtfully.
Because each print is individually inked and pressed by hand, subtle variations in texture and colour are part of what makes each piece unique. These small differences are a reminder of the handmade process behind every artwork.
