Bamboo and Plum Blossoms is a whopper. Several katagami have ‘rich textures’ in their key words. Multiple graphic techniques are used to build the pattern. Think of it like music; different elements are brought together to build a rhythm. In this example strategies include;
naturalistic rendering. Large/small, and graphic line which means that the line shifts in width to make it more expressive.

Here, clusters of bamboo leaves are rendered in light lines on dark ground. The plant as it might appear in nature works in the composition as a radiating form like a star. A second, thicker line like a vine, meanders through the pattern pulling these independent forms together. Scattered through the background are silhouettes of plum blossoms and dots pushing and pulling the eye between large and small.
