      First I thought they so ingenious, that they hide a QR code in ever picture perhaps only in embossed Part, than I read with Green screen. By way I found no good free one for Android what I use and would pay very much. But found one woodblock prints subscript page the picture of one Yokai print where if one show his real face on mobile phone picture. That would an interesting App. :)

    Just subscribed to the Japan Journeys series, and I am so looking forward to receiving my prints over the coming months. I never fully appreciated the beauty and artistry that goes into these prints - I think I, like others, have always mistaken them for very pretty watercolors. But to know that these all come from hand carved blocks of wood, printed layer by layer also by hand was such a revelation to me. I’m very grateful for these videos, and especially how beautifully done and insightful they are.

    Oh Lordy I love this. I have just spent two days explaining to my kids not only about your work (and how you came to start on the road to print making excellence) but also that of the 'Skagen' group of artists in Denmark, and how different techniques, and different 'environments' produce 'different' works of art. This will really work on them, it has certainly 'worked' on me! Are there particular print sets this works on, or have you enabled your entire catalogue? I have a plain white walled hallway that needs 'something', and this could be it.

    Hey Dave great video! You always talk about where you are in the shop at the beginning of the video, and its really hard for me to get a good visual of what the store and workshop looks like. It might be interesting as a future video idea to record some video of walking through the shop, giving commentary and, getting a good layout of the place. This is so viewers can visualize the settings of your videos. Thanks! Have a great day :)

    Hi David
    The third picture is of Chun Li fighting M.Bison in the game hugely popular Street Fighter.
    Chun Li is on the good guy side.
    M.Bison is the ultimate boss of the villains.
    All the characters of the game over the years since 1990 to the present day have their own back story, I think a picture of them all (over 60) would be an awesome collection.
    The game has been out on Super Nintendo and more recently the Playstion so Sony or Konami Studios must of had their hand in producing these yet left it out of the news for art and gaming fans alike.
    Art truly is timeless and has no boundaries
    I think that's pretty cool
