WALL CALENDAR 2027 - SERENITY KAZUYUKI OHTSU

POMEGRANATE WALL CALENDAR 2027 – SERENITY: KAZUYUKI OHTSU

🍂 TRANQUIL LANDSCAPES, GENTLE COLOR & THE BEAUTY OF THE JAPANESE COUNTRYSIDE

Find a moment of calm throughout 2027 with Serenity: Kazuyuki Ohtsu, a beautiful Wall Calendar from Pomegranate.

Kazuyuki Ohtsu creates perfectly balanced compositions inspired by the quiet beauty of the Japanese countryside. His tranquil landscapes capture nature throughout the changing seasons—from autumn foliage bursting into brilliant color to fresh snow settling over the land and transforming it into a peaceful winter scene.

A student of celebrated woodblock artist Kiyoshi Saito, a leading figure in the sōsaku hanga movement, Ohtsu participates in every stage of the printmaking process. He creates the original paintings that serve as blueprints for his prints, hand-carves the woodblocks, applies the inks, and prints the final images himself.

Rather than relying on the strong outlines found in some earlier Japanese woodblock traditions, Ohtsu builds his harmonious compositions through elemental colors and gentle shapes, creating idealized yet deeply evocative visions of rural Japan.
