Affiliate Program now available for the Annual Gift Print!

Because Woodblock.com is such a 'low budget' operation, I can't afford to advertise my Annual Gift Print out on the web. So to help drive traffic to the site during the end-of-year gift season, I am running an affiliate system, to encourage other people to advertise this print on my behalf, by paying royalties on any sales coming from affiliate links.

Gift Print has been changed ...

A different print - a nature image by Koryusai - has been added to the gift print page.

Forest in Autumn print under way ...

Here we go again! Just as I did a couple of months ago with the River in Summer print, I am going to show many details of the production process for the next one in the series: the Forest in Autumn. (Note: the day-by-day updates on the progress of the print will not appear on this main website feed, but on the RSS and Atom feeds connected with the Woodblock Roundtable ...)

Window Shopping on the Woodblock.com website

The main index page to Woodblock.com is a normal, well-ordered, sensible, and completely logical guide to this website. That is indeed useful, but sometimes we just want to go 'window shopping' ... to stroll along a street and see what turns up. That's what the new Window Shopping page is for. 'Stroll' through the website, randomly coming across things one by one ... There is no logic to the order of page display, and you won't know what will turn up next. Enjoy your visit!

My Solitudes project ... off and running!

After a month or so of preparation, today saw the first work actually involving wood!

The process starts with the bare wood of course, and the plank I've selected for this print is a bit special ... it's a piece I've had for nearly 30 years!

Four new Introductory Videos!

Four short videos are now on the website - a welcoming message, a couple that explain how some of my print series were created, and one discussing how my subscriptions work.
