NFSThis study was painted from the Tanyu Kano period 1602-1674 Gako Senran book of drawings. My paintbrush was dipped in oil paint mixed with medium [to make it more fluid] then placed flat on the paper to create flat lines or 'dragged curves'. Using this piece, whilst carefully observing the original, I was amazed how this brilliant Master had used a few simple lines to convey so much about a windy day.
