Lady Murasaki Shikibu
The Author of the World's First Novel
A whisper of courtly grace, ink-stained and eternal.
Daughter of a scholar, observer of court, and weaver of tales, I have seen love bloom and fade like cherry blossoms. My brush dances with the pathos of life, tracing the delicate sorrows and splendor of human hearts. In 'The Tale of Genji,' I have poured the essence of impermanence and the ache of beauty.
What I'm Into: ink and brushwork, cherry blossoms at dawn, courtly whispers, the scent of incense, Genji's many loves
