The legend of the golden dragon. A group of golden koi swam upstream in China‘s Yellow River. At the end of the river facing a waterfall, most of the group allowed themselves to be carried back downstream. But a few remained, determined to conquer the waterfall. In the end, one of them, one of the smallest, succeeded. For its perseverance, the gods rewarded it by transforming it into a golden dragon.

Ginkgos are ‚living fossils‘ that thrived 270 million years ago, 
before the age of dinosaurs. They found a safe haven in Eastern Asia, where they were cultivated as sacred trees representing eternal life. Ginkgos can live to be 1000-2500 years old and grow 160 feet tall. In fall their green leaves transition to saffron yellow, which release in a sequence that creates a mystical golden-rainfall.


Ginkgo trees also symbolize the balance of yin and yang. Yin & Yang are harmonic and opposing forces while yin is seen as the feminie essence and yang as the masculine essence of the sun.

the story

Ever since my visit to Tokyo to see friends, I‘ve been head over heels for Japan. Years later I discovered a fascinating book of old Japanese crests known as Kamons that truly mesmerised me. This experience ignited my inspiration to create artworks featuring these cherished symbols in my unique style. 

The timeless Kamon emblems are reimagined through hand-printed screen art. Blending tradition with contemporary design, each piece captures symbols of happiness and good fortune, crafted to inspire and uplift your everyday surroundings.

I have a soft spot for tactile natural papers and I‘m very happy to have found this exceptional paper with deckled edges from a paper manufacturer in the Vosges in France. On this paper, screen prints have been produced in a limited edition. If one of my prints has stolen your heart, let me know – I’d be thrilled to send it your way.
