After mastering the way of painting Shikunshi, four plants such as orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum flowers, and Japanese plum blossom, the next object should be natural landscapes including mountains and rivers called “Sansui-ga”.

“Sansui-ga” of India Ink painting implies not the paintings of natural landscapes in the real world but the paintings of imaginary landscapes where mountain hermits who have the power to confer immortality live.
Painters’ imagination, creativity and mental power are required.

Mountains, which are reminiscent of deep mountains and dark valleys, and waterfalls,
Modest residences where the troglodytes who depart worldliness live,
And a clear stream should be depicted.

水墨画における山水画とは俗世界の
景色ではなく･･仙境の景色です
自分の想像–創造力と精神力で描きます

深山幽谷を思わせる山々ｰｰ滝
隠者(世俗を離れた人)の住む
質素な佇まい
川は清流—を描き込みます
