Mountain Fuji Japan Chureito Pagoda Watercolor Painting
As a part of my new Around The World series (I mentioned it HERE), I want to invite my followers art collectors to Japan. I painted this artwork in watercolor in simple fresh style, where colors are bright and the lines are sharp, yet impressionistic approach to watercolor brush strokes in this painting provide an easy relaxing appreciation of this water media.
The Chureito Pagoda is five stories of beautiful lacy levels. It is located on the mountainside overlooking city of Fujiyoshida. Far on the horizon you can ses Mount Fuji. The pagoda is a part of the Arakura Sengen Shrine. It was built as a peace place and memorial in 1963. To get to the pagoda, one need to climb around 400 steps up. And when the hike is accomplished, the reward is a remarkable views of Mount Fuji in combination with Churito pagoda. It is beautiful view in any season. Lots of people love it during Spring when cherry blossoms are on the trees, but I pictured it in Fall. Autumn colors suit so well this beautiful building. The most colorful season usually takes place in the first half of November.
I love how this painting looks in a simple black frame with white mat:
If to think about no frame, the canvas painting of Chureito Pagoda looks great in living room setting:
As an artist I present more than five thousand paintings in different galleries on my website.
