Kazuyuki Ohtsu the Seasons Box 20 Japanese Cards comprises twenty high-quality 250 gsm blank Japanese notecards with soft white envelopes.
The sweet curvature of branch and blossom balances the strong lift of mountain and bamboo in the landscapes of Kazuyuki Ohtsu. His woodblock prints are poetic contemplations, drawing us into tranquil scenes of the Japanese countryside. The colours he uses are elemental, deep, and true, expressive without drama.
Ohtsu belongs to a generation that renounced the division of labour found in most print studios, preferring instead to master each step in the demanding process.
After a long apprenticeship to the renowned master woodblock artist Kiyoshi Saito, Ohtsu struck out on his own, painting his original sketches, carving the woodblocks, and making the prints. Four of his harmonious artworks reflecting the changing seasons are reproduced in this Japanese notecard assortment.
