Ukiyo-e remix art

A BoingBoing art exclusive: the latest watercolor from Moira Hahn, whose illustration work has appeared in Time, the New Yorker, and elsewhere. About this remix of classic ukiyo-e art — which depicts a backyard conflict between cats and birds — Moira says "Kuniyoshi was an influence, the primary Edo period ukiyo-e artist who regularly depicted cats… [but] most of this composition has been changed from various Edo and Meiji sources. The original figures were human, patterns were different, and there was no owl." [Ed. note: Dude, is that Waldo from Hatebeak on the far left?]
