Postcard - Spring & Summer, Plum Blossoms & Nightingale
Plum blossoms with a nightingale: one small scene from the Japanese year, somewhere between the first thaw and the height of summer.
It is pieced together from coloured washi, so the picture has a soft, layered surface you can feel under your fingertips. Send it as the season turns, or prop it on a shelf.
