| Description |
From the series "First Love", "Koibumi" ("Love Letter"). Ryusei was very attracted to the neat and clean beauties by KIKUCHI Keigetsu, the renowned Nihon-ga master. When he encountered Keigetsu's beauty for the first time about 20 years ago, he felt as if she was telling him, "Do not linger here longer, go back to your work soon". Ever since Ryusei has been working steadily to perfect his art work. |
