"Hokusai"
Another bleak and dreary day and not much to see outside. I tried to find something to shoot inside artistically, but instead I turned to one of my favorite pieces of artwork that I have hanging on the wall in my bedroom. This piece, called "The Great Wave off Kanagawa," but better known as "The Wave" is by a famous Japanese ukiyo-e artist (wood-block prints) by the name of Hokusai, published circa 1830. This piece was one of his "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" and for some reason really strikes me. Not my most artistic photo, but I thought I would share.
