look at the parts they cover with the metal tool (orange) those are notches to rest and align the paper. pretty clever method

It absolutely blows my mind how effortless she makes lining up the print with the block, and with how clean the final outcome turns out in spite of how messy the process looks to a layman. Honestly, it feels like watching a magic trick.

Omg this is like Bob Ross of woodblock yesss

Hey David, I wasn't sure where to post this so I'm just gonna put it here. I got the 2 prints I ordered last week in the mail today and instead of doing house chores like a responsible adult I've spent the last 5 hours thinking about how I'm going to frame them, what to save up for next, day dreaming and watching more of your videos. This is the first art I've bought for my home and it certainly won't be the last :). My thanks to you, Atsushi Kawai, Chiharu Kanai and the rest of the staff for bringing me the lovely Owl in Moonlight and At the Hot Spring prints.

5 seconds in and asmr hit me. Always love your videos Dave.

Not only what he is doing is art, but these videos are art aswell.

I am also giving these prints an 11/10. Keep up the good work.

That used to be 'my' bench :-) Go, Suga-san! Absolutely right re: printing keyblocks after large colors to minimize bleed from dark ink- I've even printed the keyblock last. An important consideration IMO: I'd suggest that folks create proofs first to confirm registration.

It's kinda strange to see him speaking English. I was like 'How could this craftsman speak English perfectly? Oh wait he's a Canadian'. I saw him several times on Japanese TV shows where he spoke only Japanese and explained the subtlety of woodblock printing, and I kinda forgot he was from a foreign country lol Much respect for David. He started woodblock printing at the age of 35 and yet his enthusiasm and dedication made him a great artist

I think one of the best feelings is watching somebody who loves something so much that they have dedicated themselves to become great at it. No matter what the work is, when someone is at this high a level you can't help but respect it and have some of their passion rub off on you while watching. Inspiring stuff

There's something really ASMR about this.

Dave's hair: my past Dave's beard: my future

I love how passionate you are about this job and how hard you've worked to be here. Good luck! 🙂😁

This was a lovely watch, as always. The piece itself is beautiful and the printing exquisite as always.

I just found your channel today, and I’m thrilled by all your wonderful videos! I love Shin Hanga, and this step by step was so interesting to see. Please keep up the wonderful work!!

Thank you for all the work put into making this video as detailed as it is, amazing!

Such a beautiful and well edited video. Thank you for all you post.

I really like the premise to the video, thank you for the narration, Dave. Great upload!

Bringing such colors together is a melody. Tyvm

So happy to see new content from your channel! Thanks for all the hard work you put into these videos!!!

This had me glued to my chair the whole time. Very interesting process, and this woman is quite an artisan.

I wish this was my job! It looks very focused and peaceful with the repetition and has such a beautiful result.

Beautiful work and such a well made video to share the whole process. Thank you for putting in the effort to share!

quietly stunning! i loved every moment of this video. thanks for sharing this amazing process.

Absolutely beautiful. I love the color palette, and its simple shapes combined with subtle details.

I've never seen printing like this. This is incredible. Big kudos

This was lovely. The power and precision of Suga-San's hands was a joy to watch.

Every time I watch one of your videos I want to give this amazing artwork a try. I have learned some interesting history along the way.

Just had to say I love these process videos. This one in particular is well shot and well explained. And of course an awesome print job! Fantastic.

Thank you a million times over for making these videos! They are SO fun to watch this art is mesmerizing!

I loved this. The commentary, the art, the filming. Everything. Thank you for teaching me things!

Simply phenomenal. Loved this video. Thank you Andy for the recommendation. Subscribed

Again with great work, on the video but especially on the production of the print. Congrats to all Mokuhankan team :D

What a carful and pleasant flow to describe that awesome master craft. Thank you.

Oh my god I love the the steps compilation at the end! the way the colors come in creates almost an illuion of parts of the print shiting and moveing!

Wonderful. Blessed as always to see briefly into the world of Japanese printing through the work of you and your team.

Literally been following your journey from your experiences in Japan from years ago. I'm very happy that you have become a youtube presence in the modern age. Good stuff!

Beautiful insightful video on how the traditional Japanese woodblock printing process is being done today, very comprehensive explanation, Cameron did a great job making this, thank you Dave !

I really enjoyed this video. This is an informative and professional process from start to finish. Thank you so much for making it available.

This is amazing. Thank you for sharing your art.

I can't even paint that and you carve that??? that's humbling, and it's amazing

All of your prints are so beautiful, but this one is doubly so....like you have captured the essence of summer! Wonderful video as well, thankyou for sharing with us. such a captivating craft

Invaluable documentation of the process, thank you so much for sharing.

Such a calming voice. Great energy flow as well.

Thank you for nicely illustrating how each element of the process works 🙏

So lovely work! Thanks for sharing!

I love the colors in this print.

I am glad to come across this video. So beautiful to watch!

Thank you for another great video! I'm always amazed at how the paper goes through all that without any harm, in my hands it wouldn't survive the first step without all kinds of creases!

David Bull. You are a great, a very great artist. God bless you!

I am so amazed to see this process of creating japanese woodblock prints. I have acquired some in Kyoto and later on internet auctions without being aware of the complicated process of the prints. Thanks for your educating videos 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Dear David and Natsuki, thank you for blessing my year with such an incredible video that has educated me on the woodblock printing processing in Japan. As an avid enthusiast for Katsushika Hokusai, you both have touched my heart to pieces bringing to light a 17th century process. Even the indigo blue in the Blue Sky Gradation, brought me back to the indigo in the Mount Fuji Series. Hope to visit you all in Tokyo in the future...Thank you so much.

Really nice the precision of the carver, the mastery of the artist to work on the painting....what a precision and of course the edition of the video...really nice....

I seriously fall asleep while I'm learning. It's the greatest feeling.

Enjoy the process that you share.

Every David Bull video day is a great day.

This is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

David's voice, his talent and story telling ability make this channel so wonderfully relaxing and interesting. I fall asleep easily but never on David 😍

it's really cool how she places the sheet of paper perfectly every time

11/10 would buy this.

Beautiful, thank you so much for sharing

More videos please!! Thanks for all this beatiful workshops! Hugs from Perú!

I’m so glad KZread suggested these for me.. you’re like the Bob Ross of carving and printing

Recently in history I study about Japan woodblock painting and now I see this awesome .

This is so clever. So precise. You sir are a master.

This is so inspiring to watch. As a book collector of works by Hokusai, Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, Kuniyoshi and other masters, this is amazing! Thank you for sharing!

This channel is my new happy place

What a beautiful print, and a talented artist.

The gradation is fantastic. wow

Doing great Mr bull huge fan of all your videos 👍

I just stumbled across this in the past few days, I've never even thought that you could get this level of colour performance or detail out of a carved wood block print! I'd have sworn that picture was made on a high-end inkjet system, if asked. This is amazing, I love woodworking, but I'd never realized this kind of thing was possible. :) Thank you for the window into a very cool profession!

This makes me happy

Another great video david thank you!!

So awesome! I love the image

I had no clue what woodblock printing was prior but I've watched this video like 15 times cuz it's so relaxing

Had a great time finally visiting mokuhankan after watching your videos. It was a delightful experience and beautifully put together. I may have been a bit awkward in person lol, but I was very excited to meet you in person and see your work. (I’m Arthur from the US) Anyway, hopefully I’ll be able to swing by one more time before I leave, but again thank you very much and I will recommend!

oh my god that is BEAUTIFUL

i like that slideshow at the end showing the transitions. thanks

i don't know how i got here, but the technique behind the art was something i thought simple until now. keep up the good work David, documenting art and history is crucial to the future

Beautiful work! I can only imagine how much work it took the carver to perfectly align EVERY single line in EVERY single plate! It looks like this style may have inspired Art Deco - the effect is very similar, although obviously this process would be much older.

really love your videos david

I swear if it wasn’t for DAVID BULL absolute legend

I had to watch this for my report and thanks to you, it’s almost done 💃🏻

Beautiful print here. This was a great series for Jed to show his artistic range without the gimmick of video games or pop culture.

I swear.. I wasnt intending to stay for the whole video but once I started watching next thing I know I have watch it full

Beautiful print. Obvious that experience is valued there....

I enjoyed the video and I think I now have a better appreciation for the art and the artists. Thank you.

Thank you KZread for introducing this channel :) so intresting, thank you for sharing :)

wow the color inside the lines matched perfectly with no overlay or missing space

Only in Japan could something so truly sublime occur!

How beautiful!

So relaxing

Outstanding

That's amazing work

This is very beautifully done and explained! It's calm, but interesting and entertaining, everyone involved did a great job. I recently got a Utagawa Hiroshige picturebook, but it didn't really explain how the prints are made, so I got curious. Thank you for your video, and for the amazing artworks!

This cat loves this stuff. I appreciate this.
