Description
I had the privilege of visiting Kyoto, Japan (just returned a few days ago) and one of the first photos I took was (and this will sound weird) of some tape that had been partially torn off a metal door. I knew that it would be good in a photomontage. So that was the basis of this picture. I then photographed various antique Japanese book pages and covers, added more papers when I arrived home, and here we are. I like the warm tones, the feeling of depth, the solid structure of the composition, and the sense of mystery.

Really creative and the colors/kanji blend beautifully together. Congrats. I'm headed to Kyoto in May and hope to be able to have some unique art to post later.
