Autumn Ivy Ogata Kenzan (Japanese, 1663–1743)

Though not yet autumn,
winds through the pines
blow all around me,
and I dread they will scatter
the crimson leaves of ivy.

Japanese paintings - Edo Period, ,

Hi ,

This is today’s watercolor. I got the original from the MET Museum Collection. Below you’ll find the link to the original. I decided to start working with Japanese art as a reference.

Japanese prints are so beautifull and they have had a huge influence in art, especially between 1850-1920.
