Yuri Tezuka can freely produce a variety of shades of Sumi ink and succeeded in highlighting some aspects (Mountains and trees) against others. Yuri’s choice of blue Sumi ink instead of black Sumi ink creates “tension” in her artwork. It causes the viewer to feel the power of nature. She is skilled and talented in handling “colors of Sumi ink” as well as the powerful and energetic paint strokes.

Yuri Tezuka is from Hokkaido. It is a vast island in northernmost Japan and a place where people gather in Spring/Autumn seasons to enjoy the picturesque scenery. Many tourists also visit Hokkaido in the winter season for the best powdery snow in the world. However, Hokkaido is in a heavy snowfall region of Japan. For the people living in the region, snow is not always welcomed because they must cope with the impact of difficult weather and snow conditions. For Yuri Tezuka who had been facing the hard-cold winter in Hokkaido from early childhood, the winter was a very harsh thing. It must have influenced her painting style for landscape painting in Sumi ink.

She depicted the mountain range that extended from the bottom to the top, taking advantage of a vertical composition that is unique to a hanging scroll painting. Vertical composition emphasizes the height of the mountain and gives a feeling of how high the mountain is. Also, Yuri Tezuka is emphasizing it by making the color of mountain peak lighter and fade away in the distance, while depicting the waterfall and pine trees bigger nearer to the foreground. Fog over the mountain adds a mysterious atmosphere. Yuri Tezuka created a beautiful color gradation of Sumi ink by adjusting its density.

The painting is my personal favorite from our gallery store. I am very happy it is now at a customer’s home in the USA. We hope the hanging scroll deepens the beauty of their home for years to come.

Our Feelings For Kakejiku

 The Japanese people have long set a high value on aesthetic senses since ancient times. As a result, the
peculiar culture which is not seen in other countries blossomed and many aspects of the modern Japanese
culture come from it. Parts of Japanese culture has been introduced to people in other countries recently,
so the number of people from other countries who are interested in Japanese culture has been increasing.
However, the Japanese aesthetic senses, which are the bases of Japanese culture, have been nurtured
through a long history, intertwining various elements intricately, such as climate, geographical features,
religion, customs and so on. Therefore, they are very difficult to understand not only for people from other
countries, but even for the Japanese people. I think the best tool which conveys these difficult senses
understandably is a “kakejiku.”
 The kakejiku (a hanging scroll; a work of calligraphy or a painting which is mounted and hung in an
alcove or on a wall) is a traditional Japanese art. It's no exaggeration to say that paintings are what
express aesthetic senses at all times and places. The kakejiku is an art which expresses the Japanese
aesthetic senses. The kakejiku has long been used in traditional Japanese events, daily life and so on since
ancient times. As a result, there are various customs of kakejiku in Japan; kakejiku and the life of the
Japanese are closely related. We can see Japanese values through kakejiku.
 The kakejiku is a cultural tradition which the Japanese people should be proud of. However, many people
in other countries don't know much about it because it hasn't been showcased as much. This is why I
decided to try to introduce it. The kakejiku world is very interesting and beautiful. We want not only the
Japanese, but also many people from other countries to know and enjoy it. I hope that many people will
love kakejiku someday.
