From a triptych of a black cat and the flowers of the seasons, painted in the style of ukiyo-e and shin-hanga (the early 20th-century "new woodblock print" movement). The cat reaches a front paw toward a peony drooping overhead. That suspended moment — just before touching, just before not. Three colors only: a golden yamabuki (bright yellow) ground, the black of the cat, and the lines that trace the peony and the waves. Neither flower nor leaf is filled in — form is built from outline alone. I believe that a restrained palette is what allows a painting to be looked at for a long time. The second print in the triptych "Cat and the Flowers of the Seasons." The series also includes Chrysanthemum (autumn) and Cherry Blossom (spring).
