William Seltzer Rice found endless inspiration in nature, creating a vast number of watercolors, drawings, photographs, etchings, and block prints. He arrived in Northern California in 1900, the early days of the region’s Arts and Crafts movement. Rice taught in several schools, including the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland—a center for the movement. As a medium, block printing suited the Arts and Crafts ethos of making artwork available to a wide audience at modest cost. Being a skilled craftsman as well as an artist, Rice designed, carved, and printed the blocks all himself. Today his masterful artwork can be found in public and private collections worldwide.
