Graphic Inspiration

The Elements of Japanese Design, Dower via Ley Lines
 Thanks to the Darrick and the CR Woodworking library, I sourced this book Elements of Japanese Design: A Handbook of Family Crests, Heraldry and Family Symbolism with over 2,700 designs by Kiyoshi Kawamoto. My drawings have been sliding much more toward the graphic, so this book found me at the perfect moment. There are many fragments of  these that I look forward to expanding on, and miiiiight even be thinking of doing a series of crest inspired drawings...
