Reflected Moon and Irises
In traditional Japanese painting, the style known as Nihonga, there are four themes that are considered traditional. Summed up by the word, kachofugetsu, these themes are all natural and consist of flowers, birds, scenery, and the moon. This painting, Reflected Moon and Irises, works with two (flowers and the moon) and possibly a third (scenery). Since the moon often looks truly golden, I have used actual gold leaf to depict its reflection on the water behind the swaying irises.
