wood blocks, lino engraving etc

I cannot underestimate how much I love etchings. Not sure what is that does it for me, the simplicity of line perhaps? The kids and I had a birthday dinner last year for me in a Japanese restaurant and we were all three transfixed by the woodcuts. There's some pretty sweet British work out there right now, often with a nostalgic bent to it. Check out Emily Sutton www.stjudeprints.co.uk/collections/emily-sutton and Angie Lewin www.angielewin.co.uk/gallery.htm#gallery Doesn't that just make you sing?
