Woman Portrait

 

This is the second scroll of a woman painted by Patricia Gustafson. This scroll was also made with a donsu (silk) cloth. It has a light gray background with a very small flower arabesque pattern. I felt this cloth being very muted would go well with the various shades of gray and black in the painting. It was completed in the Maru Hyougu style with a Deep Gold arabesque kinran border on the top and the bottom.

Scroll with Ukiyoe Style Lithograph

This scrolls artwork was purchased beforehand by the customer. If you also have artwork that you would like framed in an alternative style, I would love to give a quote. Contact to me at sales@customjapanesecalligraphy.com or go to my site at www.shop.customjapanesecalligraphy.com I really like how the artist melded a modern day theme with a painting in an ukiyoe style. It kind of just grabbed me. The customer ordered a Maru Hyougu style scroll, but this style of scroll just did not fit in my mind because of the length of the artwork. So I asked if I could do it in a Rinpo Hyougu style scroll. As this is a first test run frame for a series of works the customer said yes...
I was  ecstatic with the result of the scroll except for one little bulge that has been taken out during the Urazuri process.
