Lovely Peeps! Today I learned there are very specific colours traditionally used in Japanese art of all kinds (painting, textiles, etc.) - *and* there is a Wikipedia page that shows them all! I love some of the names : Ibis wing, black kite, glazed persimmon, chestnut leather, weathered bamboo, simmered seaweed, 'the brown of a distant river', 'Contemplation in a tea garden' (!!) and more. 🥰 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_colors_of_Japan (h/t to @wilpercy for mentioning the link in a thread! 🙏 ) #Japan #Art #Colour #Color #TraditionalArt
