【Kyoto One-Stroke Dragon Artist / Keisuke Tejima】Fascinated by dragons since childhood, he has continued to draw dragon images. Influenced by 14 years of practicing karate from age 6, where he learned the spirit of Japanese martial arts, he encountered the traditional 『One-Stroke Dragon』 and was deeply impressed by its technique and history, feeling it was his destiny. He learned the technique through self-study. While preserving the tradition of the One-Stroke Dragon dating back to the Edo period, he pursues it with the spirit of 【Shuhari】 (learning, detachment, mastery). He is one of only three known One-Stroke Dragon artists in Japan. Originally from Fukuoka Prefecture, through various coincidences and inevitable connections, he was guided to establish his atelier in Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, a city with a 1,000-year history where dragons are believed to dwell.
【Kyoto, the City of Dragon Deities】Kyoto has been regarded for over 1,000 years as a place imbued with the power of dragon deities residing in dragon holes and dragon veins. Many shrines and temples associated with dragons exist, and pilgrimages to honor the dragon deities have been actively carried out from ancient times to the present.
【Dragon (Ryujin) Belief in Japan】Japan has long been considered a mysterious land where dragons dwell, regarded as messengers of the gods or as divine beings themselves. Many shrines, temples, myths, and legends worship and revere dragon deities, symbolizing prosperity and protection.

【Regarding Blessings and Blessings from Original and High-Resolution Reproductions】— From Kyoto One-Stroke Dragon Artist / Keisuke Tejima —In my personal opinion, both the original artworks and high-resolution reproductions are imbued with prayers, and I believe there is no difference in divine protection or blessings. The various products I develop on this site, “Ascension, Protection, and Matchmaking of Kyoto One-Stroke Dragons,” are carefully examined and supervised to ensure they closely match the original dragon drawings I created, with detailed precision. The specific methods of production, including how they are crafted and assembled, involve using the original full-size drawings I drew specifically for this purpose, employing specialized techniques such as 『high-precision printing data conversion, high-definition printing, special processing, and manufacturing』, all with dedicated focus.
