The following prints are the masterpeace which I won a prize from the work
which I appled since 2013 for the OHGEN art group exhibition.
I use Shina-beniya which means plywood of Tilia Japonica (Japanese Lime).
The Shina wood is soft and easy to curve so that most of Japanese woodblock
print artist uses Shina-beniya.
For these large size prints I use 60X90cm Shina-beniya which thicknes is
9mm.
Use ink specially prepaired for wood block printing and use 100% kozo washi.
