  • Woodblock printmaking
    I use Japanese sakura cherrywood block 11x16 cm, pottery round turntable, and Japanese cutting knives.I tested the limits of lines and smaller details. There will be no prints for sale.The story behind this image is a vintage Latvian movie scene where little guy Sprīdītis, takes down the devil.

    Hey. Thanks. I discovered you during quarantine. I love these videos. I am an American traditional tattooer in New York and have been showing all my friends the work you post on youtube. It is incredibly inspiring and the time and care you put into your work really comes across in these tranquil videos. Please never stop posting for us.. We will be ordering prints soon.

    This theme reminds me of some arthurian legend some medieval myth and it feels good it hits properly feels quite like when borders between fantasy and reality arent so solid i personally love mythological themes very good and very precise in terms of technic i love it

    Beautiful mate! I think I get it. Your work is probably close to meditation. The focus and purpose overwhelm; it's evident in your work technique that it's a place of peace. Keep up the good work.

    The tiny details are amazing. You must have eyes like a hawk! I've seen wood carvers use metal stamps for texturing pieces. It wouldn't work for lino (I don't think) but maybe it would for woodblock prints. Like a stamp for your autograph or something.

    • @EmilsSalmins
      @EmilsSalmins  Před 3 lety +4

      I use exactly the same tools as I'm carving lino or wood. Only technique is slightly different.

    Hey - sorry if this has been asked before, but I am really curious what you stain your wood with before you start cutting. Is it watered down acrylic paint? Thanks so much, I adore your work and your videos. :)

    • @EmilsSalmins
      @EmilsSalmins  Před 3 lety

      Yes, i'm using acrylic ink, but not from the tube (* it leaves a thicker layer of ink and it suck for small details) but in liquid form, I found this ink in my local art shop '' Liquitex acrylic ink''
