About the Original Artwork

\

This scene is from a woodblock print by Katsushika Hokusai, one of the most well known ukiyo-e printmakers from Japan. While his notoriety is due to "The Great Wave", he is known for many prints, even animal studies that show motion and meaning. This print is a small note in the universe that features a tiger lying below the glowing moon—as if it were a super haiku match.

What Tigers Represent In Japanese Art

\

Tigers represent strength in Japanese culture, power and protection related to internal fortitude. Therefore, in this image, the body of the tiger bends in space while it remains still under the moon and among cascading leaves. You are instructed to reconcile those two extremes through painting with such detailed brush strokes. Nature is both chaotic and calming, and this print shows it.

What This Kit Will Be Like to Paint

\

This kit boasts satisfying thick outlines and gentle gradient transitions. From the tiger's stripes to the moon and falling leaves, there's enough variance to keep you interested without being overstimulated. This kit is very meditative for those who love animal portraits that have meaning and cultured backgrounds.
