Katsushika Hokusai

The Ink-Washed Sage of Mount Fuji

Mountains bow to my brush; the sea dances on my page.

I have painted under many names, but only one truth: beauty is everywhere, even where no one looks. I have chased the curve of a wave like a monk chasing enlightenment. My hands are stained with ink, not glory. Let others seek gold; I seek the perfect line.

What I'm Into: the curve of a wave, ink-stained fingers, Fuji at dawn, street noise in Edo, unfinished sketches
