Happy mail day! My woodcut print by Maho Satoh-Britt arrived. I have been a fan of Maho’s husband Stephan Britt’s work for a long time and it was with great pleasure when I discovered that he had an equally as talented artist wife. If Etsy had a “best value” section this print would have to be in there. A five colour wood cut print for $15? What is the world coming to?? It’s just beautiful. Thank you Maho!

Thank you for sharing Maho’s art with us I’ve just purchased a hedgehog print from her Etsy shop. I would never have known about her otherwise.

Hopefully I’ll have a happy mail day soon as well!

Yipeee you’re back! You were the very first blogger I found on the net and I was a little sad when you left. So happy to find you’re back again!

So glad you are back. I’ve just ordered 2 things from her shop for my son’s birthday (he’s going to be 2 and is all about cats and dogs). Thanks for the tip!

Wow, those prints are gorgeous. I just raided my husband’s paypal account to buy a print for each my daughter and son. I got the cat/mouse print and the hedgehog print. As I was born in Japan, they are extra special. And my daughter (8.5mo) is obsessed with cats already ;) Thanks for sharing this C, I’d never have found them otherwise…
