One morning in our hotel room in Shimoda, my wife went hunting for green tea in the fridge. I noticed her shadow cast against the shoji and asked her to pose. I love shoji for their ability to create privacy whilst giving the illusion of space through light..
I shot about 60 frames of this wonderful old pumping tower at the dam end of Sayamako in Japan. Hand held, but I think I got it..
I imagine this shutter door was once navy blue, but time and the elements have taken their toll.

/ 457X610mm / Acrylic on canvas Inspired by traditional Japanese art I decided to explore the elusive yet beautiful world of being a Geisha. / “Geisha” ( pronounced ‘Gay-sha’ ) means artist in Japanese. The ‘real’ Geisha was not a common prostitute, the first Geishas were men who entertained patrons through artistry. The Geisha evolved into being the role of a woman in Japan, holding the equivalent status to celebrities today for their time. / The different forms of art they performed were tea ceremonies, dancing, calligraphy, painting, music, not to mention they were and still are walking pieces of art. Hence, these amazing iconic figures have inspired paintings with a contemporary edge. / Nicole Whitty / WhittyARt / Self Portrait of myself in another time. 1 SOLD AS GREETING CARD SO FAR! / / / /

傘 – kasa *umbrella / お化け – obake *ghost / very famous little umbrella character from ghost folkstories of Japan. first time i saw him was in one of the kirby games for the big grey gameboys. this is my simple take on the umbrella ghost.
A girl in a bright red kimono walks proudly away displaying her beautiful colors. In Japan. It’s a tradition every Fall for seven year old Japanese girls to take pictures wearing a kimono (usually followed by a visit to a Shinto shrine). The girl in the photo is my daughter (her mother is Japanese).
A mother and daughter pray for the New Year at a Shinto Shrine in Tokyo. I’m very intrigued by the daughter’s expression as she looks up (literally) to her mother and imitates what she sees. The actual location is Meiji Jingu in Harajuku, Tokyo.
After falling in love with Ukiyo-e (Japanese Block Prints), I set out on an adventure to create a few pieces inspired by the magnificent art form. However, I wanted to bring the style into modern times… just a little. ;)
The second piece in my series in homage to Ukiyo-e (Japanese Block Print). Once again introducing a modern element. ;)
