Note
This time is the 100th anniversary, so i tried it for the first time: writting a piece of harmonious style with a paper and brush for kanji. The paper for kana is surface-treated so that an ink does not bleed easily, but the paper for kanji is a base paper that absorbs an ink well. i wanted to make use of the fact that the amount of black ink varies depending on the paper.
Since the volume of the characters in the harmonious works is different from the kana works, i also made a new 18 mm mark. You can see it as red mark at the left bottom of this work.
