Iam more than more Impressed.
It goes beyond words to express such art.
I harbour a rael deep passion for the Japanese Culture.
Since A Very Tender Elen Years old I threw myself into Shotokan Karate.
This led me to experiment in Jutitsu,Taijutsu,And some two years later Aikido.Which in turn inevitably,Introduced me to Zen Buddhism,And Shinto.
I maintained my affair with Shotokan right the way through,I studied Katori Shinto Ryu,And Iaido.
Today Iam Just Thirty Six.I can say I still harbour the very same passion and love for my studies,and will continue as an old man.
Iam also a Tattoo Artist.And I have seen these prints IMPORTED from Japan. The expression on his face;is the expression of a nobleman,One of great honour yet one surrounded in the Business of Death,Be that he kills tommorow or he faces possibility it could be his own death.This fortifies the History and Legend,The Samurai was Although versed in many Arts Including Poetry yes Poetry,And Painting and most definately Kanji Japanese Caligraphy….The Samurai Was also commited(The Word Samurai means to serve=The Lord/Daimiyo)His business was death kill the Lords enemy,Die for the Lord Or disembowl themselves in honour for as much as failure,Shame,And running from the fight,even for not carrying out a command.To be a Samurai would be burden….The expression gives that emotion when you look at him knowing his Culture.
Fantastic Art,And a pleasure to see.
