Personal artist

Craig Vaughn Fisher is an American intaglio printmaker based in Toledo, Ohio, who has pioneered innovative techniques combining mokuhanga with traditional Western printmaking methods.

Craig operates Ibis Press Studio, where he has developed a unique approach to printmaking by incorporating mokuhanga color chine collé into his intaglio prints. This fusion of Eastern and Western printmaking traditions creates distinctive artworks that bridge cultural and technical boundaries.

His innovative use of mokuhanga techniques within the context of traditional intaglio printing demonstrates the versatility and adaptability of Japanese woodblock printing methods. By integrating mokuhanga color chine collé, Craig adds layers of meaning and visual complexity to his prints while honoring both artistic traditions.

Based at his studio at 5545 Woodridge Drive in Toledo, Craig continues to push the boundaries of contemporary printmaking. His work represents a growing movement of Western artists who are finding new ways to incorporate traditional Japanese techniques into their own cultural and artistic contexts.

Through Ibis Press Studio, Craig not only creates his own innovative prints but also serves as an example of how traditional techniques can be reimagined and given new life in contemporary artistic practice. His CV and portfolio demonstrate a commitment to both technical excellence and creative exploration in the field of printmaking.
