Response to an artist; Hokusai

I've done a blog before on The Great Wave by Hokusai, which is my favorite wood block print ever.

I really just love Hokusai in general, his style is so clean and crisp yet is able to capture action and beauty. His collection of Views of Mount Fuji really show his concentration and dedication to seascapes and landscapes. The fact that he was so engrossed with Fuji really fascinates me.

Both images are from the Views of Mount Fuji, a seascape and a landscape. I love how he was able to incorporate a warm color scheme with the cool colors of the seascape and include them in the same collection.
