Japanese Paintings Koukei kojima must be watched while listening to beautiful oriental music for meditation and relaxation. The sounds of a bamboo flute and silver bells, melodious tunes of a violin are harmoniously combined with the beauties of nature, which this talented painter depicts. On his canvases, Japan looks like a fabulous country from ancient legends and tales. The pacifying landscapes are executed in that characteristic creative manner, behind which there is definitely an Asian artist, delicately feeling, neat, unhurried. Koukei Kojima carefully weighs every stroke, every stroke, making them perfect, and the colors are delicate and muted, as if they were covered with a misty haze of a fresh spring morning. That is why the paintings look a little faded, old, as if passed from generation to generation for many decades.
Such landscape lyrics are called "sansui" in Japanese painting, and Koukei Kojima prefers to work in this style. His brush perfectly transfers to paper the crystal ringing of streams and the majestic noise of waterfalls, the rustle of rain and wind, the creak of trees in the forest, the rustle of reeds by the river, as well as the proud outlines of mountains lit by the sun and covered with snow caps. Delicate watercolors by this author depict the magic of cherry blossoms, the freshness of irises, the brightness of autumn colors, as well as tiny men who seem to be ants against the backdrop of tall pines and giant mountains. Harmony reigns everywhere, and every picture literally breathes with calm.
You can endlessly admire the amazing landscapes of Koukei Kojima. You can see his portfolio on the art gallery's website.
