It's time for the 'once every couple of years' announcement of a new series!
No beating about the bush - let's get right to it! Here we are:
If the lettering on that small image isn't clear, then click it for an enlargement, or ... just go and see the real thing!
Few things to mention:
- the question of whether to make 'big prints' vs 'small prints' was really not on the table this time around. In the current climate, keeping things fairly small scale - and thus affordable - was a prime consideration.
- as I have mentioned to a couple of the collectors in direct emails, this series has the potential to be a much larger affair than a single 18-piece set. 'Arts of Japan' is a pretty much endless theme. Now although I currently have no specific plans for extending it, it would probably be a good idea to keep my options open, so with that in mind, I'm going to make this present series a mix of 'major' and 'minor' arts, rather than putting all the 'big ones' into it ... And we'll see that with the very first print - the Hokusai image of two Kyogen Dancers.
