I often go to my local river. It is called Oita river. And it is only a few minutes from my house. This river provides a wonderful choice of painting subjects as well as being a wonderful place for painting sunrises and sunsets. And in 2014 I painted many pictures of this river.
In April of 2014, I went on a family trip to Yabakei. This place is famous for beautiful cliffs. These cliffs are next to a river called Yamakuni. I spent some time finding a good view of the cliffs.Then, I took some photos. And later at home from my photos I did two paintings of these cliffs.
I would have thrown this painting away long ago but there was a good painting on the other side. So this terrible painting got preserved by accident.
