Tatewaki Taizan – 立脇泰山 (1886-1970) – Sansui – 山水

A graduate of the Kyoto City University of the Arts, – Takewaki-san studied with the great Takeuchi Seihō. From Takeuchi-san, he learned how to expertly bleed and infuse pigments into silk. He was a talented Nihonga painter, -firmly established in the pre-war period. Here, the lone fisherman is a Zen reminder of the importance of setting aside time to think and contemplate. A traditional home is humility and happiness in the home. Calm water is a Zen reflection of one’s inner calm, and mountains are immortality and longevity.
