His work feels very surreal and we found that we kept coming back to these pages to take another look. We also enjoyed the piece 'Seeing the Mountain' which looks at Katsushika Hokusai's famous woodwork prints like 'The Great Wave', part of his series 'Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji'. This is an interesting read that explores the iconic artist's techniques that have been inspiring print makers for hundreds of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho is \u003cem\u003ePressing Matters\u003c\/em\u003e for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who enjoy visually stimulating reads, \u003cem\u003ePressing Matters\u003c\/em\u003e is a brilliant and unusual collection of art to browse at a slow pace.
