"Sherborn Woods" - Reduction Woodcut Print on Paper by Gordon Mortensen soli 5" Oil On Copper Framed24 x 32" Unframed Woodcut on Paper Gordon Mortensen (b. 1938, American) is one of the best known reduction woodcut print artists working in the U. S today. He works from watercolor studies to understand the color dynamics needed for the woodcut. The artist uses up to sixty four colors and takes as long as three months to create the woodblock image. Although the final outcome has a painterly feel, it is unmistakably a woodcut with rich layered colors
