I'm planning to do a series of artworks based on an old, 10th century, Japanese folklore tale called The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter.

In this post, I thought I would share some of my past work. Specifically from when I was in university studying printmaking

This piece is from a hike we did at the end of autumn 2020, along the southern edge of Lake Chuzenji in Nikko, Japan.

The next two pieces are both from Okutama, on a trail called Mukashi Michi. They're both from the same mountain range.

I focused on the reflections of the mountains on the surface of the lake. Which was challenging, but rewarding.

This piece was from a hike I did again in Okutama, from early 2020, in the middle of winter, pre covid

This piece is from the peak of Mt. Takao, with Mt. Fuji in view.

It’s been SOOOOO long since I’ve even touched brushes and old magazines and scissors! So so so very long!! I haven’t made any art for...
