Sumo Wrestlers Bowing, 2008　(おすもうさんのお辞儀）

Sumo Wrestlers Bowing, 2008

おすもうさんのお辞儀

Mixed Meida on hand colored, stamped canvas paper

Acrylic, charcoal, conte, gesso

I drew it from the newspaper photo, when the sumo association had cause trouble and wrestlers bowed on the ring. To me it is ironic as traditional sports and it is humor of apology.

25 by 35 cm, (9.84 by 13.78 inches)
