Amongst the lilypads, the adventurer finds a mythical creature, taking a moments respite. He looks back at you over his shoulder. --- Finally done. Finally. I think worth the effort, the additional work with the wet skin and hair made a lot of difference. Hope you like him!

A muscular merman of asian heritage, with markings like that of a koi fish, including a patch over his eye, is leaning, arms folded, over a large log. He is submerged in a pond, surrounded by lilypads and their flowers. He is looking over his shoulder at the viewer.

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

The garment features a striking composition of bold vertical stripes in deep burgundy and cream, overlaid with scattered circular medallions containing stylized ume (plum blossom) motifs rendered in subtle tonal variations. Taisho period (1912-1926), Japan

This elegant kinsha (fine crepe) kimono from the Taishō period exemplifies the sophisticated balance between traditional motifs and modern production techniques that characterized Japanese textile design during this era of cultural refinement and international engagement. The garment features a striking composition of bold vertical stripes in deep burgundy and cream, overlaid with scattered circular medallions containing stylized ume (plum blossom) motifs rendered in subtle tonal variations. The integration of shippou (interlocking circles) patterning within the medallions adds layers of symbolic meaning, as this ancient Buddhist motif represents the interconnectedness of all things and the harmony of the universe.

The artistic approach demonstrates the period's embrace of geometric clarity and streamlined aesthetics, reflecting the influence of Art Deco and other international design movements that were beginning to permeate Japanese decorative arts. The silkscreened application of these traditional motifs represents a significant technological advancement, allowing for precise registration and consistent reproduction while maintaining the visual richness of hand-painted designs. The plum blossom symbolism carries its traditional associations with perseverance and hope.

Published in 1812 as part of Katsushika Hokusai’s revolutionary instructional manual Ryakuga Haya-oshi (略画早指南, Quick Lessons in Simplified Drawing), this page illustrates the master’s pioneering methodology for art education.

Displayed across a open two-page spread, a remarkable pedagogical demonstration contrasts geometric scaffolding with organic artistic realization. On the left page, Katsushika Hokusai dissects a complex scene into fundamental geometry: overlapping circles (maru), triangles (sankaku), and straight lines construct the underlying anatomy of a traveler mounted on a packhorse beneath clustered circular pine needles. On the right page, these rigid compass-and-ruler guidelines dissolve seamlessly into a fluid sumi ink rendering, bringing forth a weary traveler wearing a broad straw hat (suge-gasa) slumped gently atop a grazing horse under a textured pine canopy. Surrounding the figures, delicate calligraphic annotations guide the student's hand. The woodblock print evokes an enlightening sensory atmosphere: the rhythmic scratch of a brass compass pivoting on fibrous washi paper, the smooth glide of a bamboo brush loaded with dark indigo-black ink, the quiet concentration of an Edo-period apprentice in a sunlit workshop, and the intellectual joy of discovering order hidden within natural form. Published in 1812 as part of Katsushika Hokusai’s revolutionary instructional manual Ryakuga Haya-oshi (略画早指南, Quick Lessons in Simplified Drawing), this page illustrates the master’s pioneering methodology for art education. Designed to democratize drawing for amateur enthusiasts, textile designers, and aspiring artisans across Edo Japan, Hokusai demonstrated that any subject—from human figures and horses to ancient pines—could be reliably constructed using simple drafting tools like the compass (bunmawashi) and ruler (shaku). Rather than relying solely on intuitive copying, Hokusai’s analytical approach broken down visual reality into modular geometric building blocks.

Created in 1992 by Yuka Taguchi (田口由花), this painting stands as a masterwork of contemporary Nihonga (traditional Japanese-style painting)

Reclined in quiet grace upon a shimmering ground of dusted gold, a sleek black cat gazes with vibrant green eyes toward an overarching vine of brilliant blue morning glories (asagao). The composition masterfully balances the dark, velvety silhouette of the cat with the rich lapis hues of the fully blossomed flower, framed by deep green foliage outlined with fine, golden veins and a single emerging pink bud. The painting exudes an intimate, serene sensory atmosphere: the cool, soft texture of fine silk beneath delicate paws, the faint rustle of garden foliage catching a gentle morning breeze, the dew-drenched freshness of an early dawn bloom, and the quiet, rhythmic purr of a feline resting in watchful solitude.
Taguchi utilizes traditional natural pigments alongside sunago (dusted gold leaf) to construct a luminous background that illuminates the deep black tones of the cat's fur. The painstaking precision in the individual whiskers, fine claws, and intricate leaf venation showcases monozukuri—the unwavering devotion to artisanal mastery and technical discipline.

Meet my newest fabric art creation: Thundercloud Cuckoo the Neolithic Bird Statue. I designed and hand-sewed him, and I first created this style of bird in a dream a few months ago. Thundercloud enjoys appearing to people in their dreams. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Here's a lovely photo of Thundercloud. He's a fabric art bird. He's a mottled dark and light gray, sort of like granite. He's a roundish bird with two tiny wings and a little face in the center of his body. He has two light gray eyes of slightly different sizes and an open light gray beak. There's green fur in the background.

Here's another lovely photo of Thundercloud where he's resting on my palm.

Satsuma, Jar, 1860, Japan

Sculpted in the naturalistic form of a plump eggplant (nasu), this late Edo-period ceramic vessel rests with quiet, organic grace, its swollen body crowned by a intricately molded, rough-textured calyx and arching stem that forms the opening. The vessel features a deep aubergine and bronze-toned glaze, illuminated by an iridescent copper sheen that shifts across its fine, spiderweb-like crackle (kannyu). The object conveys a rich sensory atmosphere: the cool, weighty feel of fired Satsuma clay, the tactile contrast between the knobby, matte stem and the glassy smooth curve of the body, the subtle earthy scent of aged earthenware, and the tranquil stillness of a traditional alcove (tokonoma) housing a treasured seasonal object.

Crafted in Japan around 1860 during the Bakumatsu period, this vessel exemplifies the playful sophistication of Satsuma ware (Satsuma-yaki). Beyond its sculptural charm, the eggplant holds deep cultural resonance in Japanese tradition, particularly within the tea ceremony (chanoyu), where eggplant-shaped tea caddies (nasu cha-ire) have been prized by connoisseurs since the Sengoku and Edo periods. The vegetable is also celebrated as an auspicious symbol (engimono)—featured in the famous New Year's proverb Ichi-Fuji, ni-taka, san-nasu (First Fuji, second hawk, third eggplant)—and associated with accomplishment due to the linguistic homophone nasu (成す, meaning to achieve or bear fruit).

DELIRIUM’S MISTRESS (1985) Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 30” x 22” Tanith Lee was such a visual writer of fantasy. She gave the artist an inspiring painting concept on nearly every page, offering an inexhaustible supply of fascinating ideas. #bookssky #art 🪐📚

Over the broken ruins of a fantastical city, a raven haired young woman takes flight on the back of a white lion. With golden eyes and azure mane, it spreads majestic raptor-like wings to soar. As she scans the distance, her eyes signal concern. Wind whips her hair back and billows her cloak. The silky fabric evokes magic in its pattern, black trimmed in red with a regal gold-dotted motif. Wispy tendrils of clouds trace powder blue skies, suggesting an upward drift of air current.
