My heart belongs

     to the meadow

     at the bend in the river…

This work is not the same as mark making. It requires a study of the discipline of sumi e brushwork, which can take a lifetime to learn the nuances that may best express a particular mood or feeling.

Such a painting is this. Painted from heart and soul, it is a memory and a dream at the same time. No linear thinking. But it is executed upon a discipline of ancient history.

This is a Limited Edition Fine Art Print, numbered and signed, made from archival, museum quality giclée ink on hot press, acid-free 100% cotton rag media with a fine-tooth surface. Each will have an additional 1/4” white border to accommodate most framing needs, or which you can cut off if you wish. It is packaged in a crystal clear envelope with a sturdy back board for shipping and framing protection.

Each print will be hand signed on the back by the artist along with a stamp of authentication.

For all prints, expect 10 business days working time, as each is hand printed just before shipping, although usually less time is needed. Contact me for any other questions.

Original - AVAILABLE
