A sister painting to ‘Picture Yourself Here,’ ‘Embroiled in Beauty’ is another beautifully vertical original canvas stands out with the bright magenta colours of pinks and vivid reds, that flow through the centre, with a beaming spirit guide of light. Sakura cherry trees blossom in the cliff edges above, and splashes of water and light glisten throughout this latest piece of art by Akiyama.
