{"product_id":"natu-12","title":"Natu-12 - Framed","description":"\u003cp\u003eFusako makes her prints by cutting into plywood, often making a number of blocks to produce one image. Each block will print one colour. These are printed using watercolours, her preference being Windsor \u0026amp; Newton for their intensity of pigment. The watercolour is mixed to the right consistency and then applied to the block using a brush. This is transferred onto slightly dampened paper by hand using a baren (a flat disc covered in bamboo) to apply even, firm pressure. Each block is printed one on top of the other until the final image is completed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shapes and rich colours used by Fusako are her joyous response to life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdition of 10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium                     \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJapanese woodblock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e45cm x 60cm (image size)\u003cbr\u003e52.5cm x 66cm (paper size)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFusako Yoshikawa lives and works in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNorthern Print first exhibited Fusako’s work in 1999 as part of a print exchange with printmakers from Nagoya, Japan and Northern Print artists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFusako came to Northern Print in 2003 to take part in a residency alongside two other artists from Japan, including Eriko Maki.
