______________________________________________ “Mountain Moon After Rain - Tokimune” | By: Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892)
_______________________________________________
Created in 1885, this awesome print depicts a warrior standing with his sword, watching a bird flying by.
By 1869, Yoshitoshi was regarded as one of the best woodblock artists in Japan. However, shortly thereafter, he ceased to receive commissions, perhaps because the public were tired of his prints depicting gory scenes of violence. By 1871, Yoshitoshi became severely depressed, and his personal life became one of great turmoil, which was to continue sporadically until his death. He lived in appalling conditions with his devoted mistress Okoto, who sold off her clothes and possessions to support him.
In the following year his fortunes turned, when his mood improved, and he started to produce more prints and as a form of self-affirmation, he at this time changed his artist name to "Taiso" (meaning "great resurrection"). Yoshitoshi’s last years were among his most productive, with the great series ‘One Hundred Aspects of the Moon (1885–1892)’ which features the print above, and several other masterpieces.

Primo test con inchiostro per xilografia, carta da imballaggi riciclata e biglietti di carta pregiata con busta Regina Kartos; taglio dolce, avorio 200 gr. Trovare la giusta consistenza dell'inchiostro da stendere con il rullo di gomma è un viatico di enorme sensibilità. Il caucciù una gomma naturale elastica molto preziosa, per la cui esistenza e lavorazione sentirsi grati alla natura, e più rispettosi per i "saigneurs" che ne estraggono il lattice.

Inspired by one of my kid’s puzzles, I’ve been making tools to teach color theory and relief printing. Can’t wait to make the board that allows me to print primary and secondary colors. .
