Welcome to the art of Shay Niimi Wahl whose delicate and serene brushstrokes in the Asian tradition meet with a flair that is uniquely her own.

Etegami

Thanks to Debbie Davidson of Hokkaido, Japan, I enjoy the art of etegami with friends around the world.
“In recent years, the popular Japanese art form known as etegami (e= image; tegami= letter) has captured the interest and imagination of artists all over the world. The simplest English definition of etegami may well be ‘Japanese postcard art.’ But that phrase hardly does justice to the ‘the way’ of etegami, and I’m happy to have this opportunity to give a fuller account of an art form I’ve been trying to promote through my blog to art lovers outside of Japan for almost twenty years.” (Dosankodebbie)
