@@michaelc3977 it's ironic that you think you can measure how educated someone is by their linguistic skills in an informal setting.

@@michaelc3977 i think a goal for you is to grow up, what kind of idiotic toxic behavior you think your gonna achieve in a positive video like this, sit down little boy
I find the concept of the wood block itself fascinating. Can't quite wrap my head around how the carver could actually conceptualize the different layers; take a 2D image concept... and carve it as a negative, split into multiple layers of depth corresponding to different colours, with some of the layers looking utterly abstract without their context... ...then have this hand-carved thing's multiple layers all line up perfectly.
He's done a small series of videos on the actual carving process. It's actually a simpler than you might think. Long story short, he prints off the final image onto semi-transparent paper and fixes a copy to each wooden block. Each block is used to print a specific colour, so for each block Dave marks out the areas on the final image that are going to be that specific colour. He then carves away all the unmarked areas of that specific block, leaving only the raised areas that will be used to print that particular detail and in that particular colour. Hey, I said it was simple, not quick or easy.
@@KC-kl6qc what I can't wrap my head around is how when he puts the paper down, and rubs the brush across it, it doesn't pick up other paint on the wood block He applies paint and brushes it onto the wood then applies paper. The block is covered in wood but only one part is painted on paper
@@Berengier817 it's about pressure. Much like dry bushing in model making. I would assume that he's only lightly rubbing the brush if at all and just moving it across the surface to only allow the ample amount of pigment
@@Hex.Decimal Good point, so only 16.3 years to go :) But yeah a longer vid would be cool, I wonder when some of those unintentional ASMR channels pick this up and do a 10h loop…
It's so fascinating to watch how he alignes the paper perfectly each time where the details and the colours fit together perfectly without overlapping or bleeding into each other. Takes a steady and trained hand to do it so consistently.
@@shidfard it's still very impressive. I probably couldn't make a piece that clean looking once with a guide in every corner, let alone over half a dozen times like him lol
@@SeymourDisapproves There is a guide in the bottom right corner, and on the bottom edge closer to the left corner. And they aren't just marks drawn on the wood, they're carved out. So you don't actually have to line anything up manually, you just let the paper rest against the bit of wood that stands proud from the block and it will be aligned. Sometimes you have to adjust the marks by adding or removing milimeters of wood, since the wood changes dimensions with the changes of humidity, temperature, etc.
This was my most burning query on this video. Surely the final set of prints goes through some review and ones that are (if any) slightly misaligned get binned?
I found his channel when someone reuploaded one of his videos as ASMR when that was all the rage. I’m not fan of it but I love learning by watching without distracting music or unnecessary commentary. Turns out the mindset and some of the techniques have rather unexpectedly become useful in my work.
If you're wondering like me what the spoon is for, he's using it to keep the ink from getting on the reference notches when he brushes it on. That way there are no marks on the outer parts of the print.
i was in fact wondering why he did that and now you mention it ...ofcourse i should have realised, the notches would show up otherwise if they got ink on them. im guessing when he uses the spoon more to the left side its simply to help hold the block in place right? not actually covering anything up there?
@@martykopka there is also a reference notch on the middle left side of the bottom of each block which is what Dave is covering up with the spoon. For the same reason you describe for the bottom right reference notch - to keep pigment off these raised areas. When he fits the paper into the block before rubbing, you see him first align it with the bottom right reference notch, and then he pulls the paper down against the other reference notch to make sure it’s fully aligned before allowing the page to lie flat on the block.
Great video! If there isn't one already I'd love to see a carving one in this style - just letting the wood and the blades do the talking. I'd also be very interested in a fully descriptive video; I'm still fascinated by the process :)
I came here by ASMR related videos but I’m here to stay for the passion you have for your craft and the enormous effort you put in making every video a special event for the eyes and ears. I wish you a lot of succes. Thanks.
Was studying class 10 history chapter and read about woodblock printing in China and came to watch it.. UA-cam is such a bliss to all the visual learners like me✌
Two questions. For the second impression it looked like David was only using water on the block, but the block looked as if it had black pigment on it. Was I seeing what I think I was seeing, or was there something I missed? Also, I noticed that David applied the pigment to the tile, and picked up the pigment from the tile with the hake. What was the purpose of doing it that way?
I didn't dab on for some impressions because it was starting to get a bit darker than I wanted. Using just paste for one or two, pulls it back down. As for putting it onto the tile, this allows much finer control of how much is getting used each time. For the big 'splash' colours, directly onto the block is OK, but for the more delicate tints, using a _white_ tile lets me see clearly how much I'm getting.
@@ricardocastro6081 I don't know why David didn't answer, but one could not do the same thing with oil based inks, I print and I can say that working with water based inks is quite challenging and the results speaks for itself.
This is brilliant thankyou David. It's so rare in modern society that we see the true time, effort and process that goes into the things we consume, the products we buy or indeed the art and crafts we appreciate. We are so used to everything being instantaneous, edited or curated to such an extreme degree to satisfy short attention spans, meet algorithmic criteria or shout for attention. It undoubtedly distances us from the creators or produces of all these things, ultimately putting up barriers to the understanding of the craft, creativity and sheer effort that goes into the production ultimately devaluing the work that takes place because it goes unseen, and thus unappreciated. It is content like this and your continued candour about the work you do, the problems and challenges you face that do so much to counter act that unfortunate situation. I hope we see more of these kinds of video in the future, although hopefully not at the expense of your well deserved sleep.
3:53 David, you need to understand that what you are suggesting is EXACTLY what we want. This was a gem regardless, and I deeply appreciate this gift of a video.
I'm way over here...down here...up here in Texas, USA and I fell in love with all things Mokuhankan!! I have been getting my subscriptions already and I absolutely love them all. Any video, narrated or not short or long ( I prefer Ling videos) is exciting to me. Thx to you all Lorrie
As a young aspiring animator man. Watching your story time about Ito-san and your journey as a carver, i am inspired to work better and to work with more love no matter what work i get.
This is one of those cultural gems whose wide spread dissemination is only possible because of the internet and the ease of access it affords artists and consumers alike. I love this video and hope David can produce more to his liking and at his own pace. Watching this has motivated me to learn more about how I can procure these prints for my yet to be art collection!
Holy cow, THIS is how they made/make those prints?! It’s so much more complicated than it seems like it would be. I’ll never look at those old prints the same way again. I can’t type enough words to convey how blown away I am! Much respect!
Dave-san, thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us. I’ve been away from printing for years and sometimes miss it terribly; watching you warms my heart and makes me smile!
This is so relaxing and interesting. I'm a wildlife artist and I do a lot of ink work, acrylic painting, watercolor and the like. This form of printing would be so intricate. I wish I knew more about it!
normally I would have gotten frustrated from someone explaining something as simple as what a microphone is. but he has such a soft and kind way of speaking that it actually was almost therapeutic to hear him tell me how the microphone worked
I love these kinds of videos. I think one at your Home would be amazing. I've watched a few streams you did a while back and it looked peaceful and lovely.
Dear David, thank you so much for your videos. To me, your videos are such gems of articulate language, polite and fruitful communication. Not to mention the joy of learning about your craft. Please continue to share with us, thank you kindly and best wishes.
I think it would be a good idea to market this as ASMR in the title! The sounds are really soothing and it would help the video reach a wider audience.
This content is perfect for when I get home from work and need to relax into a nice slumber. Amazing content that is comfortable, informative, and makes me feel warm inside as if I just drank a cup of tea. I think I speak for many when I say this this form of videos are an absolute treat and highlight of our days.
When I first saw him on Journeys in Japan I said he has a very relaxing voice and soothing way speaking and his videos are even more enjoyable and relaxing!
I wish I had job satisfaction like this guy. I've never liked my job, I actually detest it at times, this guy sets his alarm for 3 am to do bits & he always seems so cheerful. To be happy in a job is one thing I haven't experienced, maybe I should have stuck with college when I was younger.
Absolutely beautiful and wonderful to see the - as you call it Dave - flow of the work. As someone who loves to draw, I love to see the process behind creating an image, no matter the format. Thank you so, so much for this.
Thank you David, I loved the video, and I'm sure me and others would greatly appreciate a session like this shot in your home (with the river passing by 😉🤭)
Funny you say this ... I'm out there right now, and it is chaos. The river is up very high after all the recent rainfall - very noisy - and the people across the river are cleaning up some fallen trees ... chainsaw city. I need to get back to quiet Asakusa!
This video is a calming delight to enjoy while winding down from work and a pleasant rhythm when lying down to sleep. David I’m truly thankful for this video.
The carvers who make those pattern blocks must be so skilled as well! Very interesting to see just how much precision goes into these prints at every step of their creation. Thank you for the video, I really love the unedited style.
I see creators like you and just pray for continued success in your adventures. I don't know how lucrative something like this is but I sense you have the sort of passion that if it came down to it, you would work out of a cardboard box to continue doing what you love. Lots of respect.
This was so fascinating to watch!! I really enjoyed how you spoke in the beginning & explained it all, I feel like I learned a lot plus the video is so relaxing too, thank you for taking the time to record this, out it together & share it!
This is really incredible, for each piece of paper pressed he looks at it for a sec to adjust for next (just like he said he would), and everytime I pause it to see if I can tell what he's looking for and everytime I fail to. It's really a treat to a master at work for any medium because I just love to imagine what is going on in their heads and how they are seeing their artwork through their eyes. Not to mention the sheer dedication to wake up at 3am everyday so he could film this for us, truly what a genuine treasure :)
Personally, I don't mind the ambient noise of the city on your videos it can't be helped. But if it disturbs you while you work I cannot complain. Keep up the good work I look forward to your next video.
Such a lovely art form. When I want to watch it, it’s super beautiful and truly something to behold. When I need to relax, it’s quite pleasing and relaxing. Thanks again for the great vids David
Its so strange. U remind me of my Dad! 😂🤣 same personality! 👌 he worked at the newspaper and i remember the dar rooms and paper rollers! love your videos!
I've waited so long for this kind of video. I searched UA-cam all over for these kind, but they are usually only a few minutes long. Thanks David, great video. I hope to see more of these in the future.
I'm so delighted that Dave made some ASMR recording out of it, loving it! Can't wait for the home recording with the river in the back ground, his voice is also very suiting, many thanks!
I'd highly recommend Dolby Atmos for Headphones if you're into this sort of content. You can free trial with Dolby Access, but as a music and audio lover totally worth it for the best virtual surround out.

The sound quality was always so good on daves previous videos I didn’t even really notice much difference!
i love the brushing sound on wood, so satisfying
Such a lovely art form. When I want to watch it, it’s super beautiful and truly something to behold. When I need to relax, it’s quite pleasing and relaxing. Thanks again for the great vids David
Its so strange. U remind me of my Dad! 😂🤣 same personality! 👌 he worked at the newspaper and i remember the dar rooms and paper rollers! love your videos!
Ganondorf ASMR?! Yes please! 😃
I've waited so long for this kind of video. I searched UA-cam all over for these kind, but they are usually only a few minutes long.
Thanks David, great video. I hope to see more of these in the future.
Yes please! More of this! I love listening to your voice and work while I'm working. It's the perfect background noise
I'm so delighted that Dave made some ASMR recording out of it, loving it! Can't wait for the home recording with the river in the back ground, his voice is also very suiting, many thanks!
5:49 “any ways enough talk” lol I wanted to keep hearing his voice 😂
The paper sounds were amazing.
I'd highly recommend Dolby Atmos for Headphones if you're into this sort of content. You can free trial with Dolby Access, but as a music and audio lover totally worth it for the best virtual surround out.
I have a Dolby atmos mode on my phone for bluetooth headset that I completely forgot about, thanks for the reminder
