By the way, did anyone know how beautiful the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu (a classical collection of a hundred Japanese poems) were? I have taken quite an interest to it. It is a beautiful collection of a hundred traditional poems, all with their own lovely and painstaking story behind its words... Traditional stories never disappoint.
I'm sorry if the translation of the poem below was incorrect; I just scribbled what was on the internet on a whim. Ah, I found it quite surprising that it was only a few days after that I realized I had chinese, japanese, and korean writing on my doodled painting.
As for the painting above, I did this painting on a whim too after seeing a photo of it a while back... I'm not quite finished but this'll have to do.
