A semi-abstract landscape of a gentle highland and fields stretching into the distance. With no water or architecture, the land is built from color fields and dry-brushed (kasure) areas of orange, ochre, sage, brown, and gray. The rectangular sky blocks and the shapes of the land share a close visual rhythm, giving the whole composition the quality of a single abstract work. The palette is unmistakably autumnal, yet the overall mood stays quiet and unhurried. A semi-abstract autumn landscape of a gentle ridge and fields stretching into the distance.

The skies are built from large and small rectangular blocks with dry-brushed edges, layering cream, pale blue-gray, lavender, peach, ochre, and coral. Below, the landscape avoids water and architecture almost entirely, distilling hills, valleys, fields, and trees into color fields and brushwork. From a distance, each piece reads as an autumn landscape; up close, the block-like color fields and scraped surfaces come forward. Warm tones are anchored with blue-gray and lavender, keeping the series at home in calm, contemporary interiors.

ABOUT RITSUKO NISHIMURA Ritsuko Nishimura makes work in which light, air, quiet, and open space (ma — the Japanese aesthetic of meaningful negative space) take center stage. Rather than rendering every detail, she holds back just enough to let color, brushwork, and surface texture carry the image. Up close, the work opens up — revealing the movement of the paint and the life of the surface beneath what initially reads as stillness. Ritsuko Nishimura creates work with an emphasis on light, air, quiet, and open space. Rather than describing every detail, she leaves just enough form to suggest the subject, allowing color, brushwork, and texture to carry the image. Her work is intended to feel calm from a distance while revealing more movement and surface detail up close.
