Whispering secrets of spring,
Wind's gentle embrace.

桜の風 [Sakura Breeze] takes inspiration from the ephemeral nature of sakura’s blooming season, which fades away in just two weeks. It reminds us that not everything lasts forever, urging us to focus on the present and savor the moment, like a petal floating away with the wind or a bird picking at the newly born sakura buds...
This piece reinterprets timeless scenes from the serene art of ukiyo-e (traditional Japanese woodblock prints), which translates to "pictures of the floating world." It brings these candid moments to life at a serene pace, allowing even the smallest details to shine.
