Thanks for the video I’m a poor homeless man living in a vehicle looking for a way to free myself instead of stepping back into society for some more suffering. This seems like a beautiful way for me to create something that I can continue to use to make money on the road I love it
Try carving characture faces ie woodspirits in driftwood, carving wood set me free , I have a channel if your interested @ chainsaw Dave usa Good luck and god bless
Beautiful! Also, this was super helpful to see the process rather just reading a description of the process in an online art appreciation class. Thank you!
It's a nice creative video. I liked watching your hands/arms...how careful and almost tender you are. It had a calming effect on me. The video was inspiring and relaxing. Thank you Jeff, for your dedicated work.☺☺
I came here because I'm doing an essay on Albrecht Durer and he was known for his print making. I decided to come and see how it's done. I appreciate your carving, the music, and how effortless you made it look. thank you and keep carving
@@Pooknottin Any limits on what kind of leather would work for this? I'm thinking of all the recyclable waste leather of sofas etc... are they generally too soft?
@@hennabyeevi It would depend, but generally I'd say it'd be too thin and too soft. You need a good thickness to get the relief and you need a good stiffness to press with. You could treat the leather (boil it for example) for stiffness, but you do need that thickness. At least a couple of mm, better with 3+ thickness as you have to carve out strips of it.
Thanks so much for the easy to understand explanation. When I look at old illustrations in old books, I would see two artists' names credited: usually the initial artist, and then the woodblock cutter, and I didn't understand how that process worked until now.
Fact is, chunk of say 10mm wood plank could become such a piece suggested by you. Carved and varnished woodcut as raised and deep cuts will make a livelier piece.
No, ni es un comentario estupido: pase muchos años frustrado querienfo 'pintar' bien, solo que el lienzo no cumplia mis espectativas: ¡LA XILLORAFIA SI LO CUMPLIO!....
non sapevo che si chiamasse xilografia! io eseguo piccoli lavori,frutta, fiori,che poi coloro! mi date una nuova prospettiva per le mie idee creative grazie e come sempre mi siete molto utili! evviva a voi! grazie. rita
Hi Jeff, my name's Estrella Beltrán-Díaz and I was wondering if I could show my art students this video. We are studying Homer and our lesson talking about woodblock printing. You're video is perfect to show elementary age kids how this art form is really done. Could I show this video to my classes??
My Name is Tony Cassar and I am working on a project on Albrecht Durer as part of my Masters Thesis can i use a short clip from your video on woodcuts pls in my project - will give you full credits for the source
I don't know about the paper. Use anything which is not too absorbent, and has a callendared finish. You can see from looking closely at the video that this is not using wood (timber), it is a fibreboard, coarser than MDF. He has clearly fixed the surface and maybe his drawing before carving with something like Sanding Sealer, which is basically Shellac disolved in Methylated Spirits otherwise known as French Polish. This dries in seconds and will keep his edges clean. However it will not be long lasting as at the first signs of moisture in the air the fibreboard absorbs this and swells and collapses. Traditionally, print block makers used Yellow Boxwood as it is almost grain free and does not change size much with humidity or temperature.
Hello, I have a problem with the ink, I tried to dissolve it with a slider and with linseed oil, but it remains with "lint" and the finish on paper looks like crayon, it is not homogeneous. Any tips? Thank you
I am also developing an art history curriculum for charter school students and would love to link to this if that is possible. I wondered if you would be doing more videos that are like this, tutorial in nature. Again, it's a great video, thanks for sharing.
Nice video good work. I wish u can be a little more detail in what tool you are using for outlines, curves since it’s kinda new to me. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
Very nice drawing and video. However, one-color woodcut prints could be done on a copier, I think. Multi-color woodcut prints seem more like the prints one sees in Japan or museums. Harder, clearly, but maybe more true to the woodcut print process.

Beautiful! Also, this was super helpful to see the process rather just reading a description of the process in an online art appreciation class. Thank you!
I searched woodcutting because I thought it would be mildly interesting but this was a pleasant surprise
Very satisfying and beautiful result!
My teacher showed my class a different video, where this girl did the same thing, but so much more difficult. You simplified things. Thank you!
Do you have a link at the video of the girl?

Thank you to showing this beautiful method of old printing.
Very nice demo.
It's also possible to use leather instead of wood, which allows you to print on curved surfaces.
What for real
@@peaceseeker123 Yeah. It's fairly simple. You just use a knife to score out channels in the leather.
@@Pooknottin Any limits on what kind of leather would work for this? I'm thinking of all the recyclable waste leather of sofas etc... are they generally too soft?
I mean too thin

Oh , man. What a beautiful way of showing this amazing technique!

Maybe a stupid comment, but I feel like I would want the Wood itself as the art. . The wood side looks amazing.

Excelente video y una regia y magistral demostracion: ¿cual fue el liquuido aplicado a la madera?
Such a superb video. I have such a better notion of the detailed artistry involved in making a woodcut print. Thank you so much!
Gorgeous! So very well done and well presented!
incredible! thank you for sharing your art
Excellent will try sir...nice vdo...just doubted about the carving..but now clear from your vdo
Excellent video and my first time seeing a woodcut print!
Beautiful work! Thank you!
Well-made video. The filming was as captivating as the woodcut and printing process. Kudos!
congratulations Jeff, amazing video, amazing work... Thanks for share something so fantastic.. Cheers
Nice. I didn't know sealing was recommended. Thanks.
Lovely watching this process.
Amazing artwork 🖼

excellent video. Congrats from Spain Jeff!!
Thank you Jeff, that was excellent !! Learned a lot and nice music with it.

Your so nice for asking hehe, there's no issue in doing so, unless you claim it as yours or modify it and upload it, which would be plagiarizing 😅
This is a public platform, yes of course you can share!
Well done dude. It came out MARVELOUSLY!!!
really your drawing and very beautiful
Very interesting. I'd like to do the same.
Thank you for the video.
Wow! Amazing!👍
Nicely done, but it would be nice to see more videos showing what else you have produced, and further instructions. BIG thanks for sharing.
I'm doing Printmaking as well. It's challenging, but its also fun.
Rayshawn Butler cool
Nice video! I would add what wood you use and what you use to seal the wood with 😅
beautiful piece! may i know what ink you use?
Really good movie thank you! What kind of wood do you use in this video?
Awesome video, a question please, why do you apply a sealing matter on your board since you intend to consume it instantly?
From my experience of carving I assume it's to stop the graphite from smearing or rubbing off of the MDF while he's carving the design. Good idea
Great song choice. At first i thought my iTunes started playing this! Excellent job on his process as well!
Could you please give me information on the beautiful music you're playing on this video?
Min. 4:46 What is the name of that object that you use with circulatory movements?
It’s called a barren.
@@matthewwhaley55 Thank you...and Merry Christmas! 🤗

Thanks for taking the time to make this helper video!
I'm also curious to know what kind of wood you are using.
Hi Jeff, would you permit to use your video to promote woodcut printmaking tutorial??
thank you ,i learnt alot from this video
Really nice!
Sick! Also: what’s the song called?
Ocean by John Butler
Is that an mdf board?thanks! Nice vid
what a beautiful video. great! thank you
Really cool
what type of wood are you using?
Looks like MDF (medium density fibreboard)
Oh how can I put the outline in the wood like the beginning of the video ?
Please answer it take me always more than half of hour to done with it
Que materiales usas para que se vea negro y que le echas cuando lo remarcas con el papel antes de empezar a cortar alrededor
Is there a name for this song by chance beautiful

Woodblock ko seal krne k liye step 2 m konsa oil use kiya h aapne??
I wonder if a finished ready-to-use block could be created via rapid-prototyping. I'd think the actual _printing_ operation still be the same.
What kind of wood block r u using ???
Beautiful 👍🏻👍🏻
Very Nice!
Beautiful video!!
Nice work man.
What is the wood and ink you used?
Who is John Butler and where can I get more? Reminds me of Kelly Joe Phelps in the best way. And thank you for the wonderful tutorial.
Great editing!
I love your work, and your music. So relaxing! Thank you.
What’s the best plywood for carving big transfers
Marine?
the BGM is wonderful
Hello, I have a problem with the ink, I tried to dissolve it with a slider and with linseed oil, but it remains with "lint" and the finish on paper looks like crayon, it is not homogeneous. Any tips? Thank you
Just wondering what thickness is this MDF ?
Nice job!! I also like the song, do you know the name of it? Thanks!!
what is the material you used for the block?
Wow nice
thank you i really needed this TwT
Nice😍
amazing!!!! thanks
What type of ink and where to buy it?
What type of baren are you using? It doesn't look like a Murasaki baren.
What kind of wood is that? Is it found or can you buy it somewhere?
Nice video, I love woodcutting too !
What paper are you printing on?
beautiful!!!
What's the difference between linocut and woodcut printing
Very cool! Is this just particle board?
Wood chipping of wood chip material. True 'woodcut' is cutting of real wood.

What are you using to draw on your carbon sheet.?
Very nice drawing and video. However, one-color woodcut prints could be done on a copier, I think. Multi-color woodcut prints seem more like the prints one sees in Japan or museums. Harder, clearly, but maybe more true to the woodcut print process.
awesome!
what are you using for sealing the wood
Moby Dick
Shellac
really cool
What do you seal it with? And what for? Thanks
50/50 denatured alcohol. you can see it as a smaller text at about 1:12-1:15
wow..... keep it up bro
Inpsiring video!!! Thank you.
Are you using mdf?
U used shalek with brush?
Nice music
