"Nostalgia for the Countryside" Color Woodblock Prints Series

Nostalgia for the Countryside is a series of color woodblock prints depicting scenes from rural southern China: misty spring fields shrouded in rising moisture, cool banana groves after summer rains, bamboo forests touched by the first morning light, and quiet fishing villages on early autumn nights.

The prints use two similar, muted, and unsaturated colors to create a soft, gray-toned palette. The color composition is like music—gray tones act as harmonies that enrich and soften the visual melody.
