Sumi-e is the art of Japanese brush and ink paintings . I love to take the traditional art of sumi-e and transform it into contemporary pieces.
Bamboo, plum blossoms and orchids are very popular subjects in Japanese sumi-e art. In addition to their obvious beauty, each plant symbolizes particular human characteristics.
Bamboo – The bamboo is symbolic of what the Japanese believe to be ‘masculine qualities’. It represents great flexibility, integrity, vitality and enduring strength.
Orchid – The orchid is symbolic of what the Japanese believe to be ‘feminine qualities’. It represents elegance, gentleness, vulnerability and beauty.
Plum Blossom – Blooming after surviving the winter weather, the plum blossom symbolizes hope and endurance. The plum blossom is also popular because of the contrast between its gnarled trunk and its fragile blossoms.
