What is the difference between the three styles?

Ukiyo-e uses flat colour blocks, fine carved black lines and soft gradients at the horizon. Bird and flower is delicate outline with pale washes on ivory. Ink is sparse grey ink with one vermilion accent.

Are these original woodblock prints?

No. They are new rendered pictures in the woodblock styles described, not scans of old prints.

Can I ask for a different subject?

Yes. Type it in the direction field, such as Mount Fuji; the picture is a request, not a promised match.

Japanese woodblock prints: great wave, cranes and plum blossom

Japanese art prints — a towering curling wave with claw-like foam crests, two small boats in its trough and a snow-capped mountain small in the distance, a classic Edo ukiyo-e woodblock print, flat colour blocks, fine carved black key lines and soft bokashi gradients at the horizon

Reading 1Great wave

Reading 2Cranes

Reading 3Plum blossom

Japanese woodblock prints of nature in the Edo manner: a great wave under a far mountain, two red-crowned cranes over a snowy marsh, and a plum branch against the moon. Each view is shown as a classic ukiyo-e print in indigo and vermilion, as a pale bird-and-flower sheet, and as a sparse ink print with one red seal. The direction field takes another subject, such as autumn maples or a koi pond, as a request.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
