This was on the same order to a martial arts studio in the central US. It reads Judo. I used a gold with a blue karakusa (arabesque) as the primary cloth and a Ginran for the Ichimonji. It was completed with a Kon (Navy) hanging string. All of these were finished with the ivory plastic jikusaki. This is written in Gyousho (semi cursive) japanese calligraphy by Yoshimi Yamada Maples (Ryugyoku).

Customer Judo Scrolls
These scrolls are a pairing for a dojo back East. Using the lighter cloth has a less ominous feel than many of the scrolls I have made for Dojos lately. Which is a good thing considering the meaning of the works.
These are the creeds for Judo. Jita Kyouei (Left) and Seiryoku Zenyou (Right). They mean Mutual Welfare and Benefit and Maximum Efficiency Minimum Effort.. Readers can learn more at this wikipedia link on Judo.
The calligraphy is written in the Gyousho style by Yoshimi Yamada Maples. (Ryugyoku 龍玉) The cloths are an off-white, almost eggshell coloring. The jikusaki are plastic ivory and the hanging string is the takuboku (White with Blue arrow)
Dimensions are as follows:
