Screen printing involves the use of stencils to transfer the design. Paint is applied to a frame stretched silk, or some other fabric that can be used for screen printing, and it penetrates the areas of the screen not blocked by the stencil. With this method you get consistent looking prints that are clean and can be done cheaply. Block printing involves carving a wood print block and pressing it sequentially along the length of the paper. This method creates a stamp that prints differently each time.

Art WorkSome art work is created in the form of a print block. Prints off of the block would all be originals, but there would be multiples of it. Many prints are numbers, 234 of 1000 for example. Another type is when a mold is created and castings are made. Each casting is an original piece of art, but there are multiples of it. When wood artist create they use a particular type of wood, like oak, for example, and each board used has its own grain pattern even from a different branch of the same tree. So it a wood artist creates an item using oak, and another exact look-a-like in maple, and still another in say mahogany some wood crafter consider the grain and/or wood to constitute a one-of-a-kind. So one of a kind does not always mean that the item is an original.

Japanese artists create woodblock prints by first sketching the design on a thin piece of paper. Next, the design is transferred to a block of wood and then carved out using sharp tools to create a relief pattern. Ink is then applied to the block and a sheet of paper is pressed onto it to transfer the image. This process is repeated for each color in the print, resulting in a layered and colorful image.
