at the beginning of this month, I finally backed in japan and my home town from london life of two and half years. ofcourse I'm already missing london and all of friends at there. but it's no time to revel in such a sentimentality. so, I recently went to zoo. and took this pict. crane represents the aesthetics of japan I personally think. in the aesthetics of black and white, and its tone is like an ink. have you heard this genre of the painting called " suibokuga "?. in short, it's kind of like an ink painting. especially, Sesshu is known as most famous and popular painter. and next, Tsuguharu Fujita also used to use this aesthetics in his works. and I also strongly feel that this aesthetics in tone of crane also very important existence in japanese art history. and as freak to black and white. 

as I backed in japan, this blog will might deliver the informations of japan then before. and ofcourse, I'll deliver the info of london and paris as well as usual. thank you for checking blog. please looking forward next article. thanks.
