Snow at Sojoji Temple

“I do not paint subjective impressions. My work is based on reality. ,,,I can not falsify..(but) I can simplify…I make mental impressions of the light and color at the time of sketching. While coloring the sketch, I am already imagining the effects in a woodblock print.” Kawase Hasui
