In this extract from the video 'Making Woodblock Prints' Merlyn Chesterman explains some of the processes she explores when making a print. Cutting the block is just the first phase in the exciting journey of proofing, experimenting with colour and producing a final print. What might start off as a black and white image can often take on coulour through layering of under-blcoks. In the video Merlyn goes on to show how clever use of cutting under-blocks can add light and depth to your prints.
