The delightful woodblock print "Budou – HEART {Aka}" (Grape – Heart {Red}) is by Mitsuru Hiraki (b. 1958). This captivating piece evokes a dreamy, almost otherworldly atmosphere. Exotic grape motifs in the background blend seamlessly with soft, graceful shading to accentuate a large, gold-embellished heart. Playful circles and elegant gold lines further enhance its visual charm.

Hiraki’s work radiates vitality, dreamlike allure, and a gentle sense of healing. His masterful use of color conveys a timeless beauty that resonates deeply with viewers.

Mitsuru Hiraki was born in Yamaguchi Prefecture in 1958. He received his Master of Fine Arts from Tama Art University in 1983 and has received several awards since then. He has held exhibitions in Japan and internationally. His artworks are rarely seen on the market—they are hidden gems.
