In May 2009 we started a web log to deal with almost everything associated with Japanese woodblockprints and culture. To see what we have done there go to http://printsofjapan.wordpress.com/ On June 29th I started a post on "Urine and the Arts" Click on the picture shown above to go there. Some of the information will deal with Japanese woodblock prints, but most of it not. |

The photo of the Betty Boop rose taken by my friend Chris will be used to mark additions made in June 2009. We used the photo of the shrub on the yellow ground in May. The orange roof brackets were used in April.
On 6/20/09 we started a web log post on traditional yellow pigments used in Japan. This can be found at http://printsof japan@wordpress.com.
On 6/11/09 we started a web log post on ukon, a yellow pigment used on early woodblock prints and other things, of course. You will find it at at http://printsof japan@wordpress.com.
On 6/9/09 we added information to our sasabeni entry on our Ro thru Seigle index/glossary page. We also added to our benihana entry.
