"Setsugetsuka", a phrase from Saigyou's poetry, meaning "Beauty in life: Snow, Moon and Flowers" For this piece, a bluish ink was used to resonate the soft blue huge on the snowy mounds, the deep blue of the moon lit world, and the purity in the young blue buds which then bloom to be flowers.

西行の言葉
「美しきもの　雪　月　花」

雪の景色、月の輝き、花の姿、を書いてみた
