Jack's Peak - Woodcut on Paper by Gordon Mortensen lakeside Black began painting the Maine20 x 26" Unframed Woodcut on Paper Gordon Mortensen (b. 1938, American) is one of the best known reduction woodcut print artists working in the U. S today. He works from watercolor studies to understand the color dynamics needed for the woodcut.
