Water rippling over rocks is the inspiration for this painting. It could be the water of a lake or the sea; or in Japanese gardens, a waterfall and pond.
This work comes in three variations: original, blue and red. Here, a modern interpretation of the Japanese sumi-e style with coloured ink is used. Originally, sumi-e is painted with black ink only, ranging from pure black to the lightest grey by mixing the ink with water.
Sumi-e is about simplicity and spontaneity, every unnecessary detail is omitted. This method of painting was introduced in Japan by Zen monks and quickly became a success because in this painting method, as in Zen, reality is reduced to its pure, naked form. No retouching or embellishments. We strive to capture the essence so that we can penetrate to the core of reality.
In gardens, a water feature symbolises the flow of life. The spring symbolises birth and childhood, the force of the waterfall for man's strength on his life path, the fast-flowing water flowing over dams for the obstacles overcome. The river widening and changing from impetuous to rippling shows the receding of the wildness of youth.
