Japan

It is about the arrival of spring with cherry blossoms in full bloom against a serene blue sky and ice cold water river. I used textured brushwork to give petals a sense of movement and light while the fresh greens below evoke the renewal and vitality of the joyful season.

It is a lyrical homage to the garden my father created by himself. It is a harmonious world with the rhythm of rounded shrubs, the gentle cadence of flowing water, and the luminous lantern that stands like a steady note of guidance. I did not paint the garden as it is, but interpreted it as a symphony of memories from childhood, the passage of seasons, and my father’s passion for gardening. This is where care becomes melody and the heart recognizes the quiet music of home!
