Today we tried wood block printing with foam. Nagatomo sensei who majored in art was our instructor. The theme was “summer”. The students picked up various motifs such as fireworks, watermelon, popsicles, etc. It was so much fun making an original copy and printing it. They did not want to stop the activity!
