Katsushika Hokusai is one of the most famous names in Japanese art, and the epitome of the later Ukiyo-e ('floating world') school. He also is one of the great draftsmen of the world. With his inimitable sense of humor Hokusai best describes himself: “From the age of 6 I had a mania for drawing the shapes of things. When I was 50 I had published a universe of designs. But all I have done before the age of 70 is not worth bothering with. At 75 I'll have learned something of the pattern of nature, of animals, of plants, of trees, birds, fish and insects.

At 110, everything I create; a dot, a line, will jump to life as never before. To all of you who are going to live as long as I do, I promise to keep my word. I am writing this in my old age. I used to call myself Hokusai, but today I sign my self 'The Old Man Mad About Drawing.” Hokusai Katsushika
