"The Garden" - Reduction Woodcut Print on Paper by Gordon Mortensen cf-vendor-fischerm England using a very limited31 x 42" 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.

Although the final outcome has a painterly feel, it is unmistakably a woodcut with rich layered colors
