This is a woodblock print of a komainu, a kind of statue that is often made of stone and found in front of Shinto shrines in Japan. I enjoy painting and drawing these kinds of statues, so I decided to make a woodblock print based on an earlier painting. This is a limited edition of only 20. It is a woodcut/woodblock print with a great deal of hand coloring added to each print. So each print has the look and feel of an original painting. The medium used for both the printing and hand-coloring processes is acrylic paint. I printed it on Muse hanga paper. It is called "Summer Dreaming" because I made the print in an old house that I rented and converted into a studio near the shore of Lake Biwa in the summer of 2010.
