About this character:
Many European architecture before modern era has 3 windows in classic, symmetric design in main rooms of important buildings such as a courthouse, a museum, a palace. About a decade ago, as an architect, Ben Ryuki Miyagi started incorporating such 3 windows in his designs of architecture.
His obsessions with 3 windows now took on the soul of its own, evolving into an art character that looks like a bear, a cat or a rabbit, with ribbons, tiaras, stars, hearts, stitches. This character is named something beary in one word, depending on its style.
About this art for sale here:
This is a print, with many custom hand-made features added, becoming closer to being only one of this kind of original art. Only one piece of this series is made so far. No other multiples were made.
Original art was hand drawn by Ben Ryuki Miyagi with color pencils on a chipboard paper of A4 size (about letter size).
Original art was then digitally scanned, and printed to the size indicated here, on a 5mm thick foam core board, with protective matte finish film on the surface. Colors on this print appear a little more brightly saturated than the original.
Ben Ryuki Miyagi personally cut the edge of foam core board based on the shape of the art. He painted the 5mm edge with acrylic. He also personally painted some parts of the surface with glossy paint with glitter pigments, while keeping some parts not painted, resulting in unique matte/gloss brushstroke texture pattern found only on this piece.
This work has a wedge shaped hook in the back, made of 5mm foam core board, so it comes ready to be hung on wall as is, without needs for a frame. You can hung this over nail heads or pins or hooks on a wall. Also on the back, near the bottom, there is a small stabilizing piece made of 5mm foam core board, allowing the work to be hung parallel to the wall behind. Thus, the surface of this art is 10mm in front of the wall surface. As long as this is hung indoor with no direct sunlight hitting, the protective film on the surface is expected to maintain original color of this art.
In the back, it has hand written signature of Ben Ryuki Miyagi, with the specific date it was signed.
