Mokuhanga Woodblock printed on mulberry paper
8x10 inches
2023

Baba Hanuman
Hanuman represents the qualities of true friendship, love and devotion.
Hanuman is the much beloved monkey king of the Ramayana Epic.
This is a small woodblock only 4x6 inches and very difficult to carve.

Mokuhanga is the traditional Japanese style of woodblock prints. The blocks are printed onto Japanese Kozo or mulberry paper by hand rubbing with a bamboo baren. The inks used are sumi and watercolor inks. Mokuhanga is a labor-intensive old school printmaking practice. After printing I painted him with watercolors.
