Ginko Hanga
I'm Taran Casey, a professional Japanese woodblock carver (10th generation), trained under Motoharu Asaka and working with Mokuhankan.
This channel documents my work as a carver — sharing the tools, techniques, and traditions behind the craft. You'll find in-depth walkthroughs of my print projects, explorations of traditional methods as I use them in projects, and a closer look at what it really takes to bring these intricate works to life.
If you’ve ever wondered what goes into carving a line that lives and breathes for centuries — you’re in the right place.
Grab a cuppa, get cozy, and enjoy the world of woodblock prints.
🗓️ I also stream twice a week on Twitch:
Tuesdays at 9:30 PM and Fridays at 9:30 AM (Japan Standard Time).
VOD's and shorts are uploaded to my second channel @ginko_proofs
