Tag sumi-e

The distant sound of summer thunder, gilded in blue.

Stealthily shooting up to the sky, admiring fresh bamboo.

Crossing the skies above water lily blossoms.

Challenge the past so you can step into the future.

The reward is nearly always worth the patience.

Stretch the boundaries of reality when it feels right.

The white blossom reaching for the running water, flecks of gold.

Picturing the sun at Oyama.

The redstart that watched the maple leaves unfold.

Every end is a new beginning. Flip through my first sketchbook of 2020

Every age has its beauty.

Even walls can become the colours that light your path.

Build your walking map for every season.

On the rooftop purple blooms, watching sparrows.

Highlights from the Tokyo exhibition and a glimpse of works ahead
