**[What is Ippitsuryu (One-Stroke Dragon)?]**As the name suggests, it is a dragon drawn with a single brush stroke for the torso, never breaking the line. It is painted while imbuing it with wishes and prayers, symbolizing that "development and financial fortune do not break," "good matches and growth do not break and connect people," and "protection and safety are continuously maintained." For approximately 400 years since the Edo period (1603–), these dragons have been revered and cherished as Ryujin-sama (Dragon God) with extremely strong protection and blessings, and the belief has been passed down to the present day."The symbol of Kyoto Ippitsuryu's protection and blessing = Drawing the torso in a single stroke without any interruption."

**[Kyoto Ippitsuryu Artist: Keisuke Teshima]**Fascinated by dragons since childhood, he has continued to draw dragon paintings. Influenced by the spirit of the Japanese "Do" (Way) through 14 years of practicing Karate starting at age six, he encountered the traditional "Ippitsuryu." Deeply moved by the history and reasoning behind the technique, he believed it to be his calling and mastered the technique through self-study. While preserving the tradition of Ippitsuryu dating back to the Edo period, he pursues the dragon with the spirit of "Shu-Ha-Ri" (Follow, Break, Transcend).He is one of only three Ippitsuryu artists said to exist in Japan. Originally from Fukuoka Prefecture, a series of coincidences and inevitable connections led him to establish his studio in Higashiyama, Kyoto—the 1,000-year-old capital where the Dragon God is said to dwell.
**[Kyoto: The Capital Where the Dragon God Dwells]**For over 1,000 years, Kyoto has been regarded as a place possessing the power of the Dragon God residing in "Dragon Holes" (Ryuketsu) and "Dragon Veins" (Ryumaku). Numerous shrines and temples associated with dragons exist, and pilgrimages to worship the Dragon God have been popular from ancient times to the present.
**[Dragons in Japan (Dragon God Worship)]**Since ancient times, Japan has been considered a mystical country where dragons dwell, and dragons have been regarded as messengers of the gods or as gods themselves. In many shrines, temples, myths, and legends, they are worshipped and revered as "Ryujin-sama," serving as symbols of "Prosperity" and "Protection."
