fallen leaves gather
in the east.

Comments1Just enjoyed some of Yosa Buson's work. He has such an amazing, simplistic style. I love how he can capture nature in just a few words, really power full. It's like I can feel the wind blowwing. The imagery is so vivid it's almost like I'm there. This had quite an impact on me today, very rewarding to have given the time to understand it.
