Cressida Campbell (b.1960) is an Australian artist. She developed an interest in woodblock printing when she studied in 1980 at the Yoshida Hanga Academy in Tokyo. She draws her compositions on plywood, carves the outlines and paints the image in many layers of watercolour. The finished picture is sprayed with water and a single impression taken. The result is one print and one block. #CressidaCampbell #woodblock
