Wood Joints by Machine & by Hand

From Living Room to Workshop

Woodworking in Small Spaces

This in-depth guide to the art and craft of wood engraving, from a recognised expert in the field, offers a fount of information, advice and top tips into working effectively in this medium. Aimed both at beginners and at those with experience, Anne Desmet RA generously shares her extensive knowledge explaining traditional techniques in clear step-by-step stages. She also introduces new, unexpected, never-before-published ideas, possibilities and directions based on her own creative experiments with wood engraving over four decades. Wood Engraving - A Personal Approach invites both beginners and more experienced practitioners to engage with the processes and possibilities - orthodox and otherwise - of the art and craft of engraving on end-grain woodblocks to produce original, handmade prints of amazing diversity and finesse. Exploring, in particular, the medium's great potential for creating images in light, the reader is supported on their own creative path with plenty of step-by-step guidance, top tips and user-friendly ideas and advice. Enriched with a wealth of inspiring images by the author herself, spanning her 40 years as a wood engraver, alongside excellent examples by other leading practitioners, the book extends well beyond the scope of other engraving manuals. While advocating and imparting traditional processes, the author actively encourages the breaking of the medium's traditional boundaries using modern methods and technical innovations. The book facilitates a lively personal engagement by the reader who will be empowered to take up this historic medium and make it their own. This book explains how to prepare blocks, handle and sharpen tools, scale and prepare imagery for engraving using traditional approaches and the latest digital aids. Shares ideas to combine wood engraving with linocut, stencils and other mixed-media methods, as well as innovative collage-making on unusual surfaces. Features inspiring examples of prints using hand-printing and press-printing, in black and white and in blended colours, and new abstract compositions printed digitally. Offers a new perspective on a medium with extraordinary capacity for expressing light, shade and precision-cut detail

A Personal Approach

Wood Engraving

'A debut that's both a paean to the art of woodworking and a memoir about creative endeavours' - OBSERVER ''Mesmeric'' SPECTATOR ''A beautifully cut and crafted masterpiece inlaid with insight and polished with the pure joy of nature.' CHRIS PACKHAM, author of Fingers in the Sparkle Jar: A Memoir ''Original. Rare. As beautiful as trees... A masterpiece.'' JOHN LEWIS-STEMPEL, author of Meadowland, The Running Hare and The Wood ''A book that is covertly a love poem disguised as a father-and-son story, an apprentice's learning of an exotic craft, a hymn to the eternal mystery of trees, and a tribute to the flat-out joy of gifting. Enchanting.'' BILL BUFORD, author of Heat and Dirt ''A delightful book about the art of craft; a hard-carved woodworking romance written with tenderness and an almost sensual attention to detail. I can smell the resin and the soft, fresh sawdust. I can feel the bite of dense grain beneath the blade. Quite magical.'' CAL FLYN, author of Islands of Abandonment ......................................................................................................... Ingrained is a love letter to trees, timber and craftsmanship - and to finding your own voice. The eldest son of a Master Woodworker, Callum Robinson spent his childhood surrounded by wood and trees, absorbing craft lessons in his father's workshop, playing amongst the sycamore, oak and Scots pine that bordered his home. In time he became his father's apprentice, helping to create exquisite bespoke objects. But eventually the need to find his own path led him to establish his own workshop; to chase ever bigger and more commercial projects, to business meetings, bright lights and bureaucracy, to lose touch with his roots. Until the devastating loss of one major job threatened to bring it all crashing down. Faced with the end of his business, his team and everything he had worked so hard to build, he was forced to question what mattered most. In beautifully wrought prose, Callum tells the story of returning to the workshop, and to the wood; to handcrafting furniture for people who will love it, and then pass it on to the next generation - antidotes to a culture where everything seems so easily disposable. As he does so, he brings us closer to nature, and to the physical act of creation. Close enough to smell the sawdust, to see the wood's grain and character and to feel the magic of furniture coming to life. At the same time, we begin to understand how he has been shaped, as both a craftsman and a son. Blending memoir and nature writing at its finest, Ingrained is an uplifting meditation on the challenges of working with your hands in our modern age, on community, consumerism, and the beauty of the natural world - one that asks us to see our local trees, and our own wooden objects, in a new and revelatory light.
