Watercolor Paintings of Countryside Scenes
These watercolor paintings came from many trips into the Japanese countryside. It took a long time to find these beautiful places.
Yufudake Mountain
I once got stuck on this mountain all night.

Evening Mountain Path
Shonai
A few years ago I tried to travel to Yufuin a "fairly" picturesque tourist town. But nearly every time I stopped about half-way in a place called Shonai because I saw some beautiful scene. Here are some of those beautiful scenes.
Japanese Haystacks
Quiet Rural Train Crossing
Golden Rice Fields
Yufuin
I have been to this tourist town many times. If you look around you can find some really beautiful scenes. Here are a few I found and painted.

Kuju
This is a beautiful national park. It's a little far so I can't often go there but I love this place very much.

This is a beautiful and mysterious place that I love to visit. It has many outstanding beaches.

Story
These paintings came from trips into the Japanese countryside. It took a long time to find these places and now I have a number of favorite haunts. Some of them, like visiting Ubuyama, came from family trips that my wife planned. Yufudake is a mountain I got stuck on all night! And Shonai is a place that I often intended just to drive through but then I happened to see something interesting and so stopped and did a painting. The Stony path is from Kuju is a beautiful national park that I love to visit.
