Japanese Scroll II

This is the second scroll I made in Japan with my Sensei's direction. I was learning techniques such as Nakaurauchi, Fuutai and the use of Fukushimaginu.
It was made specifically for the American Bonsai Society convention in New York, where I will be conducting a scrollmaking workshop and a display seminar. It is available for sale and inquiries should be made to sales@customjapanesecalligraphy.com .
 
This is a sumie painting of a Cuckoo or 杜鵑
It is painted by American artist Darlene Dihel, who resides in the Pacific Northwest. It is done in the 大和表具　Yamato Hyougu style. The Ichimonji is a Kinran, the Chuumawashi is a pure silk, and the Ten/Chi is a Shike silk. It is completed with a Brown Kakehimo that has red/green fleck to complement the chuumawashi. The Shike is a light tan earth tone and the jikusaki is a light almost ivory color wood piece.
