Sekka was a graphic artist who published some of his designs in woodblock-printed picture books. Sekka's artistic style was strongly influenced by Korin Ogata (1658-1716) who used flowing lines, uniform coloring and repetition to create decorative designs that were pleasing to the eye. The titles of two of Sekka's books which included pictures of flowers and (or) birds are shown below. Click on a book's title to see its pictures. |
