A Traditional Woodblock Printer
Surrounded by carving tools, brushes and bowls of
pigment, he spends hours absorbed in the exacting work that has
become both a passion and a ten-year project. A Canadian who moved to Tokyo in 1986, David Bull

printmaking as it was mastered in Edo-era Japan. He is currently
producing a series of woodblock prints using designs by the famous
