【Kyoto One-Stroke Dragon Artist / Keisuke Tejima】Since childhood, he has been fascinated by dragons and has continued to draw dragon images. Influenced by 14 years of practicing karate from age 6, through which he learned the spirit of Japanese martial arts, he encountered the traditional 『One-Stroke Dragon』 technique. He was deeply impressed by its history and technique, felt it was his destiny, and learned it independently. While preserving the tradition of the Edo-period one-stroke dragons, he pursues the art 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 encounters, he was guided to establish his atelier in Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, a city with a 1,000-year history where dragon gods dwell.
【Kyoto, the City of Dragon Gods】Kyoto has been considered a place with over 1,000 years of ancient power from dragon holes and dragon veins. Many shrines and temples associated with dragons exist, and pilgrimages to worship dragon gods have been actively carried out from ancient times to the present.
【Dragon (Dragon God Belief) in Japan】Japan has long been regarded as a mysterious land where dragons dwell. Dragons are considered messengers of the gods or even the gods themselves. In many shrines, temples, myths, and legends, dragons are worshipped as symbols of prosperity and protection.
