Appreciation towards Bryan Nash Gill for providing the following description:

Bryan Nash Gill将自然融入艺术中，以他独特的方式为大家展现英格兰树木的世界。

树木让人喜爱。Bryan Nash Gill利用各种树木的截面做成大型的画作。他寻找美丽的树木—那些被损坏的木材，种类包括水曲柳，枫木，橡木，云杉，柳树。接着在上面涂墨，打印出树木美丽的截面，这些迷人的图像里面包含了一棵树的完整结构断面，此外还有迷人的形状和让人印象深刻的细部。

树木，让人赞赏的生命；年轮，将生命的时间可视化。这样的艺术，无法错过。

“Bryan Nash Gill is not simply a naturalist, he is an artist rooted in nature. He draws his vocabulary from the world of New England’s woods.”
— Pat Rosoff, The Hartford Advocate

If there is, indeed, nothing lovelier than a tree, Connecticut-based artist Bryan Nash Gill shows us why. Creating large-scale relief prints from the cross sections of trees, the artist reveals the sublime power locked inside their arboreal rings. Gill creates patterns not only of great beauty but also year-by-year records of the life and times of fallen or damaged logs. He rescues the wood from neighboring land, extracts and prepares blocks of various species (including ash, maple, oak, spruce, and willow), then makes prints by pressing the contours of rings and ridges until the intricate designs transfer from tree to paper. The results are colored, nuanced shapes—mesmerizing impressions of the structural integrity hidden inside each tree.

Woodcut includes an introduction by esteemed nature writer Verlyn Klinkenborg and an interview with the artist describing his labor-intensive printmaking process. Also featured are Gill’s series of printed lumber and offcuts, such as burls, branches, knots, and scrubs. Woodcut will appeal to anyone who appreciates the grandeur and mystery of trees, the visualization of time, and the unique treatment of something as ubiquitous as wood. There is much to admire in Gill’s exquisite prints, collected now for the first time in book format.
