Fuji

Description

"Fuji," translating to "wisteria," was created with watercolor and acryla gouache and represents the month of April. It incorporates a purple and teal poetry ribbon, wisteria, and cuckoo birds.

Hanafuda are playing cards of Japanese origin. The name "hanafuda" literally translates to flower cards.  Each suit is painted as a whole and then divided into four individual cards, creating the 48 card deck. The best part? The Hanafuda deck can be used to play a myriad of card games!

I started illustrating my own Hanafuda deck "Interlude" back in February 2017 with the help of my patrons on Patreon. With only 3 suits left to create, on October 10th, 2017 I launched my very first Kickstarter campaign to bring the deck to life! The remaining illustrations will be unveiled throughout the next month.
