Portland Maine

I had a brief visit to the lovely Portland Maine. No, these are not

my pictures...nor did it really look like this.

It was cold and snowy, but the town is so charming and worth visiting.

Fumi Watanbe

Seattle-based artist Fumi Watanbe describes herself as primarily “a designer and conceptual thinker” in addition to being an artist with a background in both illustration and fine art. She describes her work as “intricate compositions that convey a sensual and organic atmosphere. It is not a statement, but rather a gift to reflect and evoke a feeling…my intent is tocreate an environmental sanctuary that transcends the present and visually imprints its effect on the viewer's collective experience.”About the current collection: Fumi’s intricate artistic process begins with wood-block prints on Japanese silk tissue and Japanese paper. Using colors and patterns inspired by nature, the hand-cut prints are layered in collage on wood panel. As Fumi speaks about her influences for this collection, she states, “A deer is a symbolism for a messenger of spirits in Japanese culture. The current collection of work is inspired from the spiritual landscape juxtaposed with simple observation of life. Like the surface of water, reflecting both the branches above and the ripples obscuring the dark rocks below, my work is about both what is seen and what is unseen. These works were created during a time of transformation, capturing the beauty and feeling that otherwise last only for the moment.”
