Japanese Flora Vol. 2

Introducing the highly anticipated Japanese Flora Vol. 2 by Sören Sangkuhl. This sequel builds upon the success of the original edition released in 2018, offering an enriching continuation of its predecessor.

This book is the culmination of Sören's relentless pursuit of artistic expression, reflecting his deep-rooted passion for pencil and paper. Over the years since the first volume, he has felt an ever-growing need to articulate his artistic vision. Countless hours were dedicated to this project—approximately 700—where Sören meticulously transformed ideas from his mind to paper. His hand instinctively guides each line, resulting in a natural flow that belies the effort behind it. Those familiar with Sören know that he leaves nothing to chance; every detail is meticulously planned and executed with precision.

What to Expect:

• The book comprises nine chapters, each showcasing various flower species.
• Each chapter begins with two technical tutorial pages, followed by fully realized illustrations.
• Concluding each section are specially designed Japanese family crests, known as Kamon, which have been a part of Japanese culture for centuries. Accompanying these designs is a detailed description of each flower, including when and how to use them—making this book both informative and inspirational.
