Description

Oil on Canvas, 11 x 14 inches. This one is for my sister. She requested a Cherry blossom tree and after she wouldn't stop nagging me to get to hers I finally painted it. I tried to incorporate many aspects of Japanese culture and landscape I suppose. And I also tried to include some style similar to the Japanese woodblocks. The tan box is actually my name, at least my first name and the red box shows the date. I tried to do both of those in Japanese too. I really enjoyed painting this and enjoyed the style very much. So, I hope you all like it as much as I do.

I REALLY LIKE THIS PAINTING! GREAT USE OF COLORS AND TERRIFIC VISION. WHEN I FIRST EXAMINED THIS PAINTING I THOUGHT THE TREE LOOKED LIKE A HUGE COTTON CANDY. THEN LATER ON I FOUND IT WAS A CHERRY BLOSSOM SO STUPENDOUS CREATIVITY! THE MOUNTAIN AND RIVER IS A GREAT BACKROUND FOR FOR, WHAT I BELIEVE IS THE MAIN FOCUS, CHERRY BLOSSOM. WHAT I LOVE IS THE SPECIFIC DETAILS YOU PUT IN THIS. IT IS VERY INTERESTING OF WHY THE ARTIST PUT THE JAPANESE WRITING BUT I UNDERSTAND WHY HE/SHE WOULD DO THAT AND IS A GOOD IDEA TO PUT THAT THERE. LASTLY THE BAMBOO (I THINK ARE BAMBOOS) LOOK VERY NICE AND A STUPENDOUS ADDITION. OVERALL IT IS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN!
