Profiles of Healing Series: Ikuko Osumi, Sensei: Japanese Master of Seiki Jutsu
Davidson Design, Inc., New York, New York, 1999
Description
This book is the second in a series of more than 10 books. The challenge is to maintain the series format that Davidson Design, Inc. established with the first book while seeking innovative responses to each individual book. I created a format derived from the subject's traditions. A diverse range of artwork had to be incorporated while maintaining a sensitivity to Japanese culture.
