Title: Zenbouji Temple, 5" x 7"
Edition size: Open Edition
Size: 5" x 7"
Hand signed by the Artist and framed.
This is a pen and ink drawing of the Zenbouji Temple in Usuki, Japan. Usuki is small rural town in the southern island of Kyushu, Japan, and is known for its many traditional temples and Buddhist ruins. This particular temple was one of my absolute favorites in the area, and I've used it in several paintings and drawings.
The temple itself is found on a winding cobblestone street that is both narrow and steep, and sits in a very traditional, rural setting. The lines and space in this temple are wonderful, and I could probably spend years painting and drawing different aspects of it.
