Ukiyo-e (Pictures of the Floating World), is a genre of Japanese art from the 17th-19th centuries that has produced and inspired some of the most treasured woodblock prints. I also share bits of Japanese culture. & Living Artists: @uridev.urieldana.com

I like to post Western artists influenced by Japanese woodblock to show how far-ranging this art form reached. Many artists tried to use techniques that imitate woodblock. Berlin artist Klaus Ensikat (b.1937) is a German artist known for his Tolkien illustrations.

I like to post Western artists influenced by Japanese woodblock to show how far-ranging this art form reached. Many artists tried to use painting techniques that looked like woodblock. UK artist Hilda Hechle (1886-1939) was one of these artists. Instead of yokai, she chose fairies and spirits.
