Description

  The present invention relates to a woodcut creation method and a woodcut.

  The current printing technology has made remarkable progress, such as increased volume and precision.

  By the way, the printing technology of woodblock prints that has been inherited since ancient times is still high in commercial value in terms of excellent artistic properties such as color development, surface non-flatness, and small amount of high added value.

  Conventionally, however, complicated designs using woodcuts, especially printed expressions such as blurring and blurring, are impossible except for skilled craftsmen who have handed down ancient techniques. Moreover, even a skilled person may be difficult.

  Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is a technique for producing a woodblock print that enables a complicated design, in particular, a printed expression such as blurring and blurring, even if it is not a skilled worker, in a traditional woodcut printing technique. Is to provide.

  The above-mentioned problem is solved by a woodcut production method characterized by having a transfer printing process for transferring and printing a drawing material applied to an uneven wood side and a printing process for printing with an ink jet printer. .

  In particular, printing that transfers a drawing material such as paint applied to an uneven wood side, so-called woodcut sliding and printing by an ink jet printer, for example, in the group of paper, Japanese paper, cloth, and resin. It is solved by a woodcut production method characterized in that it is performed in the same pattern on a thin material (sheet-like material) selected from the following.

  In the present invention, an uneven wooden side is an object in which an uneven surface is provided by a cutting tool such as a carving sword.

  And the printing ink by an inkjet printer is a thing in which the light-resistant pigment was used especially.

  In addition, the design for printing with an ink jet printer and the design for the bottom of the tree to make irregularities are particularly those created by a computer, and the data of each design is the same in the storage unit of the computer. Is stored in the file. Then, it is assumed that the registration necessary for printing by the tree side is in the design created by the computer. In addition, a left-right reversal drawing including a design and a matching register created by a computer is used as a sketch, and a left-right reversing unevenness of the design and the matching registration is provided on the surface of the tree side. Furthermore, the pattern for left-right reversal and / or the left-right reversal unevenness is 90 to 110% of the pattern for printing by an inkjet printer created by a computer.

  Then, after printing a register with a pattern that expresses blur or gradation on a sheet-like object using an inkjet printer, the registration register printed on the thin object is aligned with the registration register printed on the tree side, and printed by the tree side. It is preferable to carry out. In addition, it is preferable that after printing a pattern expressing blur or gradation on a dry sheet-like material by an ink jet printer, the sheet-like material is moistened to perform printing by a tree side.

  The above-mentioned problem can also be solved by a woodcut produced by the above woodcut production method.

  If it is carried out as in the present invention, it is possible to express blurring and blurring.

  The reason is as follows. That is, according to the ink jet, fine blur and gradation can be expressed. On the other hand, in woodcuts, when the paint is placed on the woodblock with a brush, the amount of paint to be placed is adjusted to express blur and gradation. Therefore, in a plane smaller than the size of the brush. Bokeh and gradation are almost impossible. In addition, although the linear gradation can be adjusted with a brush, gradations such as concentric circles and curved directions are difficult. However, according to the inkjet, these are also easy.

  And if it uses an ink jet printer after printing by a tree side, it will become difficult to align. That is, it is extremely difficult to match the pattern of the ink jet printer to the pattern after woodcut printing, and the trial and error is repeated until the position matches. In an ink jet printer, even if paper is inserted at the same position as much as possible, output is often shifted. Therefore, it is highly preferable to perform printing by a tree side after the ink jet printer.

  In the present invention, the reason that the left-right reversal pattern and the left-right reversal unevenness are 90 to 110% larger than the pattern for printing by a computer-generated ink jet printer is basically that the ink jet printer is dry. This is because, while printing is performed on Japanese paper or the like, the woodcut prints on wet Japanese paper or the like. That is, Japanese paper is stretched by several percent when moistened, so it is preferable to take this into consideration.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that a light-resistant pigment is used as printing ink by an ink jet printer. This is because if the light-resistant pigment is not used, the color fades when exposed to sunlight, and the value as a work of art is greatly impaired.

  Further, in the present invention, the design for printing by the ink jet printer and the design for the lower drawing for unevenness on the wooden side are created by the computer, and the data of each design is the same in the storage unit of the computer. The reason why it is stored in the file is that it is convenient for creating the figure below and is particularly easy to align.

  And, the registration that is necessary for printing by the wood side is in the design created by the computer because the registration is not printed according to the thing printed by the inkjet printer on Japanese paper etc. This is because sometimes the symbols cannot be matched.

  In addition, after printing a design on a dry sheet with an inkjet printer, the sheet was wetted and printed on the wood side, so it was not possible to print on wet Japanese paper with an inkjet printer. Because. That is, when printing on a dry paper or the like with wood edges, the paint is difficult to be transferred to the paper, so the Japanese paper is basically moistened with the woodcut.

  The woodcut production method according to the present invention includes a transfer printing process for transferring and printing a drawing material applied to a wooden side with irregularities, and a printing process for printing with an inkjet printer. In particular, printing that transfers a drawing material such as paint applied to an uneven wood side, so-called woodcut sliding and printing by an ink jet printer, for example, in the group of paper, Japanese paper, cloth, and resin. A thin object selected from the above is performed in the same pattern. In particular, after the printing process by the ink jet printer, the drawing material applied to the tree side is transferred and printed.

  The uneven wooden side is an object in which the surface of the wooden side is uneven by a cutting tool such as a carving sword. And the printing ink by an inkjet printer is a thing in which the light-resistant pigment was used especially.

  The design for printing with an inkjet printer and the design for the bottom of the tree to make irregularities are especially those created by a computer, and the data for each design is the same file in the computer's storage. Is stored within. Then, it is assumed that the registration necessary for printing by the tree side is in the design created by the computer. In addition, a left-right reversal drawing including a design and a matching register created by a computer is used as a sketch, and a left-right reversing unevenness of the design and the matching registration is provided on the surface of the tree side. Furthermore, with respect to a pattern for printing by an ink jet printer created by a computer, a horizontally reversed pattern and / or a horizontally reversed unevenness has a size of 90 to 110% (particularly, more than 100%). ing.

  After printing a register with a pattern that expresses blur or gradation on a sheet-like object using an inkjet printer, the registration register printed on the thin object is aligned with the registration register marked on the tree side, and printing is performed with the tree side. . In particular, after a pattern that expresses blur or gradation is printed on a dry sheet-like material by an ink jet printer, the sheet-like material is moistened and printed by a tree.

  The woodcut according to the present invention is a woodcut produced by the above woodcut production method.

  Hereinafter, specific examples will be described.
