I went to see the exhibition of Kenzan and Korin at Idemitsu Museum. I like the works of Ogata Korin but I don't know about Ogata Kenzan very much. Kenzan was Korin's youngest brother and was a ceramic artist at Kyoto (move to Tokyo in his final years) . I heard that his works wasn't yet fully understood until quite recently. But in these days the kiln he used was discovered and his works was began investigating.
I sew some great potteries that Kenzan did and Korin decorated. It's quite luxury! I found the good dragon skin pattern on his work and the files with the pattern was sold in the museum shop. So I got it for my husband as a souvenir.

でしょ。
根室、いいよー。交通アクセスが良くないので、時間のたっぷりあるときにのんびーり車でドライブするのがいいねー。あんな風景が延々と続くの。
刺繍楽しいよね。
最近、わたしも「はじめての刺繍 ワンポイントステッチ500」という本を買って、小物の隅っことかにちょこちょこ刺してるよ。
ではまたね。
