Lin Mifu Hongxian Poetry Scroll
35×520cm
When I was a third-year high school student, I saw Mi Fu's (1051-1107) Hongxian Poetry Scroll at the Tokyo National Museum and was particularly fascinated by the dry brushstrokes. I wrote this piece because I remembered it and wanted to express it in my own way. It's still a crude piece, but I hope you'll enjoy it.
Two reconstructed poems from the first class of Takanokiri
36×6cm
Kokin Wakashu
Song 27
The spring willows, leaning against the light green threads, occasionally shedding the white rain.
Song 37
The plum blossoms that I once saw as pitiful only in other places have now turned red, and I have now picked them.
"Takano-kiri" is the oldest surviving copy of the "Kokin Wakashu", but only a fragment of the first volume remains. This time, I selected two lost spring poems and attempted to restore them. I will continue to cherish the time and environment in which I can study calligraphy, and continue to devote myself to my studies.
