Wood prints as a hobby?
As my new hobby, i am making wood block prints (search 4 Gwen Frostic for more) and i need a good woodcarving set.
Anyone know any good Cheaper ones? I was able to do my first with a carving knife, but that takes too long and is too sloppy.
The weather is getting better so go to some yard sales and see if you can find a Dremel motor tool, it would be a handy item for it uses a lot of cutting and grinding down items. Heavy duty exacto knifes and blades are not to bad in price as well as the wood carving tool sets. Check a discount tool place also. Making prints of wood carvings is a very old art. The ancient Chinese have been doing it since probably the Shang Dynasty 1766-1154 BC or even before. In the Zhou period of that dynasty wood blocks were carved in the shape of coins with Chinese Characters and pressed into clay to make a mold, then the cooper was cast into that mold to make a coin. Good luck in your endeavor. You are joining the ranks of the artists of ancient times.
