Hokusai Printing
Posted by Alice DesGrangesKatsushika Hokusai (October, 1760-April 18, 1849) was a Japanese painter and print maker from the Edo Period. He is most famous for his series of prints called “Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji” produced during the period 1826-1833. One of these views, “The Great Wave Off Kanagawa,” has become a modern-day icon.
The first grade class studied Hokusai’s Ukiyo-e wood block printing methods and then designed and carved their own beautiful prints using foam board.
