The story behind the print

This unframed paper print features a black squirrel in profile, painted with bold sumi-e ink brushstrokes against warm aged paper. The animal's pointed ears, compact body, and sweeping curved tail are rendered in dense black ink, while a red seal and kanji script sit in the upper right corner. The composition is vertical and centred, with the squirrel facing left.

The artwork uses a limited palette of black ink, warm beige, and a single red accent. Loose brushwork creates texture across the squirrel's back and tail, contrasting with the smooth, mottled paper background. The combination of animal subject, calligraphic mark-making, and seal stamp gives the design a traditional Japanese ink painting character.

Printed to order in the UK on 270 gsm premium satin paper using a 12-colour Mimaki UCJV300-160 printer and authentic Mimaki OEM inks, this poster is supplied unframed and available in the configured sizes shown in the Size selector. Each print is rolled and packaged by hand.
