Hanging Scroll Project

I am working on a project that is inspired by the hanging scrolls of Chinese and Japanese artists from past centuries. Although images of any proportion could be hung in a scroll-like fashion, my initial set will be tall and narrow. I am also limiting my first images to black and white.

My intent is to create scrolls that convey a quiet beauty, such as what might be found in the tokonoma of a Japanese home — an alcove where paintings, ceramics, flower arrangements, etc. are displayed.
