The Art and Craft of Wood Engraving

By Chris Daunt - Rating: 9/10

Chris Daunt is known in wood engraving circles as one of the few remaining block makers out there. Here he has written a beginner-friendly guide to the process with tons of examples of his own work and the work of a handful of other engravers, many of which I know from their social media presences. I was already familiar with most of what is covered here, but, since this is a contemporary book, there are many helpful references to companies and products that are all available right now. There is also quite a bit of inspiring info about the variety subject matter and the mark-making possibilities that the medium offers.
