How does a job similar to woodcuts, but on paper? 10 points for best answer!?

And I do not want to buy materials expensive and I want it's fairly easy:) Thanx

Woodblocking is made in the paper: The stamp is wood, paper usually is the media. If you do not have wood, which could carve his image in a block of linoleum, which is essentially the same thing. It's called linoleum instead of a recorded http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linocut wood. Linoleum is well priced, I have a good size, 6×5 blocks I used for etching for about $ 5 and a price set for the size of $ 10. And it's really easy and smooth carving in. If you want the look, not the Print part of it can easily simulate it with pen and ink with a quill pen. Ink and feathers / feathers immersion are pretty cheap, less than $ 2 usually, and easily accessible in places like craft stores. Just use very thick lines to simulate a "stamp" look, a bit like this piece http://berylsays.deviantart.com/art/Woodblock-67185265 types of wood (which is real, but it seems too difficult copy), or the use of very fine lines and crow's feather (tube types are very small feathers DIP) to simulate a Japanese Ukiyo-e type of wood (the entry a request for printing in Japan has http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodblock_printing_in_Japan good examples). It's just a different method of ordinary woodblocking and linoleum engraving is different than drawing, but they run on similar principles. You can also get a replica of an impression if you click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratchboard Scratchboard, you only need the Board and a knife. Study examples of woodcuts that you like and see how you can translate in their art. Usually only a thing of style, such as Ukiyo-e prints, you can easily do without that size so you should look at a lot of such examples and try to emulate in a media you choose.

How can an original Japanese woodblock print a copy? Bleeding in the back of the print? Thanks!?

Are you talking about the transfer of an image? There are a couple of ways. Two of the easiest to use a cheap contact paper acrylic matte medium. Make a copy of the image in a copier or printer. With cheap contact paper, peel contact paper and put it directly on the image. Make sure you rub it hard with a wooden spoon or something similar. Place a small pile of water for about 10 minutes. You should then be able to simply roll the paper and the image will stay outside. It will be light, but will be there. And the paper over the emerging role of the plant further contact will be maintained and can only be pasted into something! The medium acrylic mate, you can get at any art store. This works on canvas or board, but no paper. He left a good amount of medium on canvas or board. Place the image face down on top and rub with a spoon. Let dry for 24 hours. Then take a sponge and rub the paper off. Once again left with the image of the Board, but will rather light. This method also will leave the image in reverse so keep that in mind. This also has a little more practice to get the right help Hope. Definitely there are other methods of transfer, it starts getting more complicated. In addition, all transfer methods leave the image clear than it was, except of course, just photocopy it.

Why did the samurai in Japanese wood paintings often have crossed eyes?

Is there a meaning behind it?

When blood pressure increases the head, the eyes become a little cockeyed. To represent such a powerful, masculine samurai, wood paints exaggerated squint. On the other hand, women were often described as very small eyes. Probably, small eyes were regarded as beautiful and feminine. Http: / / ja.wikipedia.org / wiki /% E7% 94% BB% E5% 83% 8F: Utamaro1.jpg Kabuki also uses this method. http://www.kabuki-bito.jp/theaters/kabukiza/images/handbill/kabukiza200806b_handbill.jpg?html There was plenty of wood engraving of the stars of Kabuki in the Edo era so probably you are referring to this.
