Japanese Style

Japanese Style

There is more to Japanese gardens than cherry blossom and stone lanterns, lovely though these are. Zen gardens are intellectual as well as horticultural exercises. The origin of Japanese garden style lies in China, but in the centuries since an envoy to China returned and recreated a version of the Emperors garden, the style has evolved and been refined so that only traces of the Chinese derivation remaining. The Japanese garden is a subtle statement compared to the Chinese grand proclamation. The garden is seen as a place of peace and meditative thought.

Opposites are put into balance- light and motion against the solidity and stillness of stone, mountains and serene lakes. The typical Japanese garden is a landscape in miniature- grand mountains with tiny trees representing forests; dry stream beds representing raging torrents of water. The famous raked gravel gardens represent the movement of water around islands or mountains of stone. The flow and movement of the gravel dramatically offset by the stillness and permanency of carefully placed rocks. The Japanese garden imitates nature, it does not deny or try to conquer it. The whole garden is considered and plants are part of the story, but do not dominate. Mastery of mass and void- the balance and distance between the various components in a garden creates a balance and boundaries. Voids draw the viewer in to contemplate the garden, and balance the mountains complete with karedai (dry waterfalls), trees carefully trained over bamboo frameworks, with heavy rocks weighting branches, that appear to have been ravaged by wind and time. Stroll gardens, or kaiyushiki teien, are amongst the most appealing of Japanese gardens. Some wonderful examples are open to the public. The Shinjuku and Rikugien gardens in Tokyo are both stroll gardens incorporating the elements of a large expanse of water, man-made miniature hills, carefully clipped foliage representing forests and artfully placed and cleverly trained trees which form irresistible vignettes or pictures which are revealed as you progress around the garden. Often a designer will intentionally create a garden which depicts a famous site of scenic beauty within Japan.

This is the case with both kaiyushiki teien and kare-sansui. Gardens of raked gravel and stone, the kare-sansui, are more symbolic representations of nature than the stroll gardens. Gravel and stone are used to represent flowing oceans, mountains, and streams and together these elements build up a garden picture. It is not a garden in the western sense as there are no flowers, lawns or borders, but it is the creation of a landscape picture, the creation of movement and stillness using raked patterns in gravel and carefully selected and placed stones. So plan and build your Japanese style garden, taking into account the elements above, and do use a lovely tree such as a cherry or maple and include a beautiful stone lantern. Take a lesson and stretch intellectual and horticultural skills.

Japanese Garden Terms
- chozu-bachi a water basin for the cleansing of hand before a tea-ceremony

- kare-sansui a dry lanscape garden which replaces trees, plants and flowers with an the careful placement of rocks and patterns raked in sand. Kare-sansui developed Zen temple gardens during the Muromachi period (1398-1558).

Nanzen-ji, Kyoto

- kaiyushiki teien the stroll garden. Often a stroll garden will include a path around water. During you progress are series of carefully planned and articulated views will appear. The shakkei technique and the familiar hide and reveal, both also used in western landscaping, are employed. Developed during the Edo period (1615-1867)

- nakaniwa a garden enclosed on all four sides by buildings.

- roji, or rojiniwa the path (and sometimes the garden) that leads to the tea house. Stepping-stones keep feet out of the garden and clean, and uneven spacing slows the walker and encourages contemplation.


Hibiya Park is a green oasis in the heart of Tokyo

- shakkei a borrowed view framed by trees, walls and other components of the garden.
sozu length of bamboo which, when it fills with water, drops with a loud crack onto a rock and empties. Sozu were used to frighten deer.

- tsuboniwa a small, usually courtyard, garden meant to be viewed from inside. The small scales is often emphasised by an arrangement of bonsai.

- tsukiyama a mound of sand or soil used to represent a mountain.

Pines, shaped to show the effects of wind, casting shadows in autumn
- tsukubai an arrangement of stones, including a water basin (chozu-bachi) for cleansing hands, in a tea garden.

Meiji Temple, Tokyo
- tsurukame an erect and a flat stone paired in a garden to represent wisdom and longevity. The erect rock represents a crane (tsuru) and the flat a tortoise (kame). Tsurushima is a vertical rock, used in this motif, representing a crane island.

And lets not forget the cherry blossom

Japanese Sweet Potato Cake

Japanese Sweet Potato Cake
Adapted from Masa

• 300g sweet potato (with purple skin)
• 160ml milk or cream (I used milk)
• 40g sugar (I used brown)
• 2 eggs
• 30g all purpose flour
• cake tin (15-18cm)

Preheat the oven to 170C.

1. Butter the baking tin and dust with flour. Remove excess.

2. Steam the sweet potato until cooked, and remove the skin.
3. Put the sweet potato in a blender and mix until smooth (I dont have a blender so used a potato masher!)

4. Place the sweet potato puree in a bowl and add the milk or cream, mix together.

5. Add sugar into the mixture then the eggs. Combine well with a whisk.

6. Add the sieved flour and mix until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the cake tin.

7. Bake the cake for around 40-50 minutes at 170C. At around the 40 minutes mark, check if it is cooked by inserting a chopstick/stick into the cake and if the stick comes out clean, it is cooked. Otherwise, leave it in the oven longer.

8. Once out of the oven, leave on the tray and wait until cool. Better yet, put it in the fridge after it has cooled down to further set.
Note: Remember not to eat straight away (as hard as it is!) as it is easier to cut into the cake once it has cooled down and set, as there are very little flour in the cake.

Japanese Brush pens are an occasion to what else draw!

Gray ink brush pen, Muji black ink brushpen. A couple chinese calligraphy classes allows me to relax. The red ring you take off--it separates the ink from the brush array when inside the package. I kept it. Im a pack rat.


Delaying gratification. Been wandering into the Kinokuniya stationery store as a matter of course each time Im in Japan Town. I have more than enough drawing implements in my satchel. I have three or four sketchbooks in there, kneaded erasers, pens, pencils, ,waterbrush (and unopened spare), watercolor set, various hoarded coffee shop napkins for blotting, fountain pens--I am prepared for a drawing opportunity. Though most days I will not find one.

The bag is heavy. I have my GF-1 in there for photos that I will regret not taking, a copy of "And there you are" because this book was intended to replace the habit of carrying sketchbooks all the time. See Ive lost an entire bag with contents like mentioned above. Including a camera.

Old habits. "Then the terrorists win" internal argument loops and fades, results in carrying a reconstituted clone of the same bag, contents and all, anyway. Why not. If Im not drawing then what the heck Id just hang it up and buy a doughnut franchise.

But when the drawing does show up all recrimination is erased. More drawings want to show up. The need to try brushes and notebook papers and feeling some stories out glide in. The day is brighter in one corner.

The coffee helps, too.
