I began to make videos that demonstrate my way of 50+ years of woodblock printmaking.
Mostly short, they come in no class order; ideas are dealt with answers to students’ questions.
Your questions after watching will lead to additional videos.

The videos were made by my student Jere Kilpinen from Finland.

About Richard and the School
"Over the last 45 years I have taught to hundreds of students, both Westerners and Japanese, the great art/craft of Japanese waterbased printmaking, called Mokuhanga."
Richard Steiner has been teaching mokuhanga in Kyoto for the past 45 years to a interesting variety of students, Westerners, Japanese, children, deaf adults, mice in the studio ceiling. As a Western artist who studied 10 years from a traditional Japanese teacher, Masahiko Tokumitsu, he is able to teach mokuhanga in a way that is accessible for both Japanese and Western students. For 15 years Richard has taught from his studio in the very heart of Kyoto.
You can find more information about Richard and his work on his personal website Richard Steiner's Home Page, www.richard-steiner.net
