## About this style

A firm black key plate encloses vivid vermilion, green, yellow and pink separations. Slight offsets and paper-white gaps retain a hand-printed character.

New-Year woodblock traditions vary regionally; this treatment emphasizes key-block contours and vivid color layers.

Slight red-yellow misalignment beside clear black outlines can reveal successive manual printing passes.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Black contours and bright printed colors simplify features and clothing with little shading.

- **Landscape**: Compact flat shapes, print edges and paper texture organize scenery.

- **Object**: A few color areas emphasize ornament and silhouette over reflections.

**Subjects**: Choose interacting figures, animals, fruit, flowers or houses with clear poses and limited color regions.

Simplify forms into compact flat color regions with a few rhythmic decorative interior lines derived from existing folds and foliage. Show small registration shifts and narrow unprinted paper gaps at selected edges. Reduce wood grain and fine crosshatching. Do not add lucky characters, gods, babies, fish, lanterns, zodiac animals, festive costumes, lettering, seals or ornamental borders.
