[Click here to view the video in this article]







Artist Derrick Castle, creative person behind Straw Castle brand, has created a collection of block printing, an ancient method for relief painting.



He meticulously hand-carves every design on blocks of wood or linoleum, paints a thin layer of ink over and presses them on paper stock or textiles to create these artworks.



Some of his designs are featured as posters, product packages and on t-shirts, that can be purchased here.
