Takezasado is a long-established woodblock print studio in Kyoto. The
5th generation owner, TAKENAKA Kenji, regularly challenges himself
to create new items using traditional woodblock print techniques and has
been very successful in this endeavor as many of his items have attracted
a number of fans. In this book, Takenaka lectures carefully about how to
make woodblock prints. Even a complete beginner will understand the
technique using his design sketches and enjoy making them with their own
hands. How to carve and print, and how to use chisels are covered based on
Takezasado’s traditional techniques.
