During his study with Kason, he took his artist name Koson, a partial adaptation of his teacher's name. Early in his career, many of Koson’s prints were muted in colour and captured a sense of calmness and elegance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOccasionally the artist would choose other themes from the natural world, such as this example, with a frog sitting on a lotus leaf in the rain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial;\"\u003e10749-178\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Vault by Gary Germer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44871499710640,"sku":"10749-178","price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0469\/5343\/1203\/files\/IMG_4919.jpg?v=1765132311","url":"https:\/\/shop.garygermer.com\/products\/ohara-koson-hand-colored-japanese-woodblock-print-frog-on-lotus-leaf","provider":"The Vault by Gary Germer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
