Tea Foxspirits − A Pair of Watercolours with Poem
A pair of 2 Watercolours on Water colour paper 20 cm x 40 cm.
The brown shades are made of tea. I wrote a poem on both of the pictures.
It´s inspired by drinking chinese tea (gonfu cha). More about chinese tea culture on Wikipedia.
The poem on the first picture says: "Stiller Nebel, duftender Tau... ( Silent Haze, Fragrant Dew...)
And the poem continues on the second picture:
... der Fuchs unsichtbar lacht" (The Foxspirit Laughts Silently).
The calligraphy is inspired by chinese characters,
the letters written from top to bottom.
