Wow, I’ve been having a blast experimenting with encaustiflex—a flexible microfiber paired with encaustic wax. Loving how it can be cut, folded, and reshaped!

A young apprentice geisha (maiko) with straight black hair parted in the middle and face-length side bangs which indicate movement or dancing looks down to her left while wearing a light peach silk kimono with a few floral patterns and fire red collar. She has placed a small tsuzumi (or kotsuzumi) on her right shoulder. This handheld drum consists of a lacquered wooden body shaped like an hourglass and features two drumheads with cords that can be squeezed or released to allow the player to raise or lower the pitch while playing. Such hand drums are used in Noh, dance music (nagauta), off-stage Kabuki theater music (geza), and in traditional folk music performed by maiko and geisha. Nakamura Daizaburō titled this work Tsuzumi (Hand Drum)—inscribed in kana calligraphy on the storage box. In doing so, he followed a convention established by Japanese modern artists of titling a work after a distinctive object in a painting rather than by referring to its human subject. He was the oldest son of a kimono dyer and established his fame in the early 1920s, creating numerous paintings of idealized young women. His training in the family textile dyeing business allowed his works to accurately capture the latest fashions of the day. Later in the 1920s, he would expand his repertory to create larger format genre scenes.
