oodcut prints are made by carving an image on a block of wood, rolling ink on the surface of the block and printing the image onto a piece of paper. All woodcut prints made by Ellie Kirby are printed by hand with a wooden spoon.
More prints and information about woodcuts will be posted on this site at a later date. A complete selection of woodcuts made by Ellie Kirby can be seen at her booth at the
October Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands in Asheville, North Carolina
. She will also be demonstrating how to make a woodcut print at the
Parkway Craft Center near Blowing Rock, North Carolina
, this summer.
