Waldo S. Chase
1895-1988
Born in Seattle, Washington, he was a painter/printmaker along with brother Wendell Corwin Chase, and is known today for his color woodcuts depicting Northwest and Western landscapes.
The Chase brothers claimed to have been self taught using Frank Morley Fletcher’s book Woodblock Printmaking by the Japanese Method, 1916. However, they did receive instruction from the noted Japanese woodblock printer Kazuo Yamagishi, who visited Seattle in (showing 500 of 1112 characters). |
