Woodblock printing is a traditional form of printmaking in which an image is carved into a block of wood, then inked and pressed onto paper or fabric. The process first involves the artist sketching a composition onto the block, then carving out the areas that are meant to be left blank, leaving the raised areas as the image to be printed. The block is then inked using a roller, and paper or fabric is placed on top of the block and rubbed by hand or using a print press to transfer the ink to the paper. This process can be repeated with different colors and layers to create more complex images. Woodblock printing is known for its bold and graphic style, and has been used for centuries to create prints, illustrations, and even textiles. Today, it is still used by artists and printmakers around the world to create unique and beautiful works of art.
