Victory Over Self

 

This calligraphy reads that One who attains Victory over Oneself is Greater than Gaining Victory over 10,000 enemies. Self Mastery and continual improvement of oneself makes us feel better about ourselves and improves our self esteem. When we practice a skill, or improve daily then we are gaining mastery over ourselves. 

This scroll is made in the Sandan Hyougu format. It has a deep gold karakusa for the Ichimonji, a dark gold Chumawashi donsu cloth and a cotton khaki ten/chi.

Sitting Girl

This is also by artist Patricia Gustafson. This was the largest of her three paintings. I chose to do this in the Fukuro Hyougu format, with the three suji insert into the frame. I felt this simple style would help to accentuate the paintings subject matter. What do you think? Do you like this?

Wallscroll Man Sitting Stage 2a

 

This is the photo of a Maru Hyougu format scroll in Stage 2a. I used the Dark Brown Ichimonji (Cloth strips bordering the top and bottom of the artwork) to provide a strong contrast to the light green, yellow wicker pattern cloth. I used green as the cloth color to help offset the deep, strong reds in the sumi painting.

Please reply and tell me what you think of the kakejiku (wallscroll) in this beginning stage by commenting.
