Japanese White Enso Painting with Orange and Red Maple leaf Momiji

20 x 20 x 2 cm, 23 x 23 x 5.5 cm framed, oil on canvas with gold

Relax with this minimalist enso painting featuring a red-orange Japanese maple leaf, enso rendered in white and gold on a linen canvas. This calming piece with gold reflects light for a soft, zen aesthetic.

The linen canvas is protected with a clear primer so the texture is a feature in the artwork. The carefully sourced wooden box frame is another reminder of nature with knots and interesting variants matched with each artwork by the artist making each work even more unique.

An enso or the neverending circle in this art symbolizes life, enlightenment, strength, elegance, the universe, and mu (the void). Drawing an enso is a disciplined-creative practice of Japanese ink painting, Sumi-e which I took classes in Japan and the UK.
