Prompt: Full-screen, complete width, broad, 16:9 format of a delicate linocut with bokeh edges, rich colors, executed on rough handmade paper of poem number 48, Minamoto no Shigeyuki, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "Like a driven wave, / Dashed by fierce winds on a rock, / So am I: alone / And crushed upon the shore, / Remembering what has been." The ocean is buffeted by a gale-force storm driving mighty waves onto the shore made of high, rocky cliffs. The left side of the image shows the cliffs stretching out along the shore. The right side of the image shows ocean spray and foam flying high into the air as the waves crash into the cliffs. Dark blue-gray clouds scud before the gusts of wind. The ocean is a dark blue-green with white foam. The crashing waves symbolize the poet's desparation. The unmoved, rocky cliffs symbolize the dispassionate object of his desire. The image is executed as an exceedingly detailed, highly symbolic woodcut, with a strong, wet watercolor wash overlay, providing rich and varied colors and splashes. The ocean, the wind, and the clouds are rendered in painstaking detail; the composition is lively. Extreme detail, clarity of rendering, timeless, symbolical motif combined with a classical woodcut esthetic and masterful technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.
Prompt: Full-screen, complete width, broad, 16:9 format of a delicate linocut with bokeh edges, rich colors, executed on rough handmade paper of poem number 47, Egyō Hōshi, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "To the lonely house / where the weeds, eight layers deep, / have grown rank, / not a soul can be seen - / but autumn, at least, has come." This image shows a simple, dilapidated Japanese hut made of stone in the midst of high, dry, spent weeds that have gone to seed. Some of the weedy vines have engulfed the hut and have climbed almost all the way to the roof. It is autumn, and the air is crisp, the sky is blue with puffy, white clouds. The lovely fall day hides the fact that the house is lonely, decrepit, and that winter is around the corner. The hut symbolizes a person in the fall of life. The image is executed as a detailed, highly symbolic woodcut, with a strong, rich, wet watercolor wash overlay. Extreme detail, clarity of rendering, timeless motif combined with a classical woodcut esthetic and masterful technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.

This image shows a Japanese sailor in a small skiff being tossed about by Hokusai-style waves. The young Japanese sailor has lost one of his two oars, so he is quite distraught and lacks orientation in the high waves. The weather is stormy, with rain and wind driving the the skiff in all directions. The image is executed as a detailed, highly symbolic woodcut, with the young sailor lost and without direction in the straits of love.

He is standing outside in a bamboo patch, trying to gain the attention of the young Japanese woman inside the house. She is ignoring him, with her back turned to him, as she prepares tea in the kitchen. The young woman has spurned his love countless times, but he continues to persistently stalk her. The image combines an extremely detailed, richly colored, old-fashined woodcut technique with contemporary bokeh elements and some impasto abstraction. The two figures stand out in great detail, and the bamboo patch is painstakingly rendered as a woodcut, but the background, the open-plan house, is rendered in bokeh. Extreme detail, cutting-edge contemporary motif combined with old-fashioned artistic elements. Masterful technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.
Prompt: Full-screen, complete width, broad, 16:9 format of a delicate linocut with bokeh edges, rich colors, executed on rough handmade paper of poem number 44, Chūnagon Asatada, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "If it should happen / That we never met again, / I would not complain; / And I doubt that she or I / Would feel that we were left alone." Two realistic, young, chic, urban, contemporary Japanese in their early twenties are standing completely back to back, ignoring each other. One is a young Japanese woman dressed as a Gothic Lolita. With his back to her, the second person is a young Japanese man in candy-colored, frilly and demure Jirai Danshi fashion that makes him look very feminine and coy. The two had a one-night stand, but, as they obviously live in very different spheres, their love is over. Now, they're ignoring each other and pretending that they're strangers. The image combines an extremely detailed, richly colored, linocut technique with contemporary bokeh elements and looks a bit like a realistic Lomo photograph. The clothes are shown in great detail, but the background, an urban setting, is bokeh. Extreme detail, cutting-edge contemporary motif. Masterful technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.

A contemporary woman spurned by her lover sits sadly and contemplatively on a Japanese platform-style bed made of dark wood. The bed is pristine and perfectly made up with light-brown sheets and pillows. The elegant, young woman is despondently holding her head in her palms and is staring glumly out of the window of her high-rise apartment. The quiet of the starkly decorated, perfectly arranged apartment contrasts with the apparent bustling, busy, urban life outside.

This poem uses fairly common imagery: Glistening, refractive, rainbow-color-reflecting, opalescent, sparkling, jewel-like dewdrops densely covering the crumpled leaves of fall shine like pearls and gemstones. The image focuses on the sunshine on fallen leaves on the forest floor and their sparkly dewdrops. Some leaves are being whirled about by the wind, spraying their gemstone-like dewdrops through the air to create a glittering spectacle with a bokeh esthetic. The gust of wind is made visible by almost comic-like parallel lines and curls. Combination watercolor and woodcut, executed in a style reminiscent of Kawase Hasui.

He is contemplating the sunny, early spring landscape outside the train window. As if in a perfect snapshot, a single, magnificent plum tree in full bloom stands on a grassy meadow and can be seen right in the middle of the windowpane, with only the left side of the tree slightly obscured by the profile of the man looking out of the window.

A gale-force gust of wind is blowing down the mountainside quite dramatically and, for the sake of the viewer, with a visible pattern. The wind is blowing red and yellow leaves before it, and bending grasses all the way to the ground. The leaves swirl and twirl in the crisp fall air. The red and yellow of the trees and leaves contrast sharply with the white pattern used to visualize the wind against an electric blue sky. Intricate watercolor overlaid with a woodblock print.

This poem was an entry in a poetry contest by accomplished poet and calligrapher Fujiwara no Toshiyuki. The image personifying the poem shows waves lapping the shore of Sumi-no-e Bay (Osaka Bay) at night. The stars are shining brightly; their silvery light reflects off the waves and the foam that decorates their edges on the shore. The sky is underlaid with a very delicate, barely noticeable calligraphic line pattern of two lovers engaged in a forbidden tryst lying across the entire sky, as if in a dream, almost obscured by the light of the twinkling stars.

This particular poem, and the image it conjures up, is a masterpiece. We see scarlet Japanese maples lining the bank of the scenic, gently flowing Tatsuta River. The golden sun is shining on this day in fall, and the maple trees are very gradually losing their foliage. Leaves are lazily floating downward through the air, and cover nearly the entire surface of the river. The leaf-covered river shimmers in tones of scarlet and burgundy as the leaves slowly floating downriver. Poignant image perfectly capturing the essence of autumn. Exquisite Japanese folio.

In the foreground, we see a small group of young Japanese Middle Counselors wearing intricately patterned silk black-and-gold robes with a high collar at the back of their necks, over loose, abstractly patterned white-and-gold pants. The noblemen are thronging around one of their members to bid him farewell and good luck for his assignment to Inaba province. Exquisite Japanese folio.
