You draw a vivid portrait of your brother-in-law who loves woodcut. Through your poem, I can see his artistic talent and your adoration. Beautiful! It's impressed me - He created the cover woodcut for an English version of CHUANG-TZU. - for 庄子.
Yes, first he created a woodcut for an edition of Zhuangzi (Chuang Tzu) put out by Bantam Books. When the book was republished by Hawaii University Press, he did a new cover woodcut for it. When asked to do these covers, he looked through piles Chinese art books to get inspiration. Thank you so much!
