Douglas E. Welch<p>Artist Creates Fantastical Woodcuts and Engraved Paintings Suited for Fairy Tales [Interview] [Shared]</p><p>When&nbsp;Matt Roussel&nbsp;traveled to Mongolia in 2015, something critical dawned upon him: he didn’t want to work as a 3D illustrator anymore. This decision ultimately propelled him toward the multimedia practice for which he’s known today, revolving around everything from woodcuts and prints to ceramics and painted, engraved wood.</p><p>During this transition, Roussel first gravitated toward woodcutting, developing a style replete with unusual creatures, playful compositions, and defined, illustrative lines. Soon after, he complemented his prints with expressive, imaginative sculptures, inspired by Japan’s tradition of raku ceramics. It was only later that he combined woodcutting with his urge to paint, resulting in deliciously textured surfaces whose every crevice is streaked with translucent colors.</p><p>Read More<br><a href="https://welchwrite.com/blog/2025/04/23/artist-creates-fantastical-woodcuts-and-engraved-paintings-suited-for-fairy-tales-interview-shared/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">welchwrite.com/blog/2025/04/23</span><span class="invisible">/artist-creates-fantastical-woodcuts-and-engraved-paintings-suited-for-fairy-tales-interview-shared/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/woodcut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>woodcut</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/artist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>artist</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/interview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>interview</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/shared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>shared</span></a></p>

Hotspur🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦<p>"Le Bon marché," Felix Vallotton, 1893.</p><p>Born in Lausanne, Vallotton (1865-1925) was part of one of my favorite art movements, the Nabis. Highly respected as a painter, he was also an accomplished woodcut artist, as we can see here. </p><p>This is one of a series of prints he made depicting everyday life in Paris, although often with a satirical and critical eye. Vallotton held strong leftist and anarchistic beliefs, and his art could be critical of class divisions, hypocrisies, and, as we have here, consumerism.</p><p>Le Bon marché is a real Paris department store, still in operation, and we see women descending on the fabric section in droves, while black-jacketed salesmen attend to them...or are they seducing them? Their poses can be seen in a suggestive light, especially the one couple sitting tete-a-tete. </p><p>From the Collection Pictet, Geneva.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Art</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Woodcut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Woodcut</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/LesNabis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LesNabis</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/FelixVallotton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FelixVallotton</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Caricature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Caricature</span></a></p>
