Embrace the Delight - the August block set!

This next video from the Mokuhankan printmaking workshop in Tokyo is all about carving. Dave creates the block set that will be used to make the August prints in this year's subscription series: Embrace the Delight!

Bonus content includes a trip to his Ome home/workshop, glimpses of the Ninja who work/play across the street from the Asakusa shop, a (rare) segment on inlaying boxwood into a cherry block, and a selection of clips from recent live streams.

21:38 Dave just keeps working as a child savagely beats a grown man in the middle of the streets.

I caught a Dave Bull upload within 5 minutes! Feel like I'm sat in the front row 😎

The Bob Ross of wood carving. relaxing just watching and hearing him talk about his craft. yet, we never learn enough

[TheMosquitto]

Just watching Dave carve is so meditative. It's good to relax to.

I hate getting nostalgic, but I gotta say, seeing Dave work out of his own house at the 44:00 mark really makes me miss the old vids from 2013-2014 when he had the old Seseragi Studio. It was so peaceful seeing him work on the very first Jed Henry Ukiyo-e Heroes prints with just the sounds of rain, or running water, or birds chirping in the background. Good times.

There's soo much work that goes into the print making it's insane. You are doing great work and I'm glad there are still people like you keeping tradition alive wherever they are.

I'm a big fan of these condensed streams. The added voiceovers are phenomenal too. I'd love more of these types of videos!

The Return of the King! Take your time Dave, you can't rush perfection :)

[ZottyLuck]

Dave, you've come a long way. You never disappoint us. Your work is always beautiful. You will always be supported by us. You are loved. Peace be with you.

[whiteywalker]

OMG the faces and the thin crisscrossing lines overlaying the key block - I hope to eventually reach that level of control while carving. You're my carving hero!

[marcpatersn]

Good to see you back Dave, and good to hear that sonorous voice of yours too!

[JuanCarlos-nqjr]

It's so cool that you make these videos, it's something I would never think about and to see it myself in such detailed while explained is really interesting. Thank you

[nathanwashington]

This is a GREAT format that may be slightly less work on your end to put out as new content but is really entertaining and something I’d love to see more of, I can’t make most of the streams so getting the highlights and explanations like this is great

[jembawls]

I watch all the content you put out here on the channel and I appreciate the variety! But I must say, there’s nothing like just watching you work. I think I can safely speak on behalf of everyone here that these kinds of videos are really insightful, educational, and - most importantly - entertaining! And we would welcome more just like this! Thanks for sharing Dave!

[bombastus]

Thanks for finding the time and energy to make these videos. Much appreciated, David!

[daintybeigli]

I have absolutely no idea why this popped up in my recommendations, but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Definitely subscribing to enjoy a peaceful hour working alongside someone so pleasant and skilled ❤️❤️❤️

[saris]

Honestly Dave.... most of us just love your voice, explanations, and watching you carve :)... love it.

It’s like a Xmas day when a new Dave Bull video turns up. Get in!

Mr. Bull, you have taken something I previously knew nothing about that was not on my radar and made it fascinating to me. Your relentless attention to detail at every stage has me in awe. A deep bow. You are indeed a craftsman, sir!
