Hokusai's graphic interpretation of water feels fresh and contemporary. I sketched the lower left corner.

Uniball vision pen and watercolor in moleskine. Below is the print from Hokusai, 1955 edition published by Charles Tuttle Company.

This is absolutely stunning...so vibrant and energetic! I love that you shared the entire process as well...
You have such a gorgeous series of Hokusai's work...I wish I could find a book like yours...I am delighted each time I visit you! :)
Margaret, I admire your talent in art, words and thoughts so much. The little Hokusai books that I have were printed by the Tuttle company. I like them for their intimate small size. The 24 Views of Mt Fuji are online if you type the title and Roger Zelazny. The book I found for about $7 throough Amazon. The printing is not high quality and the paper quality is poor, making it appear a bit blurred after 40 years. I have not checked for the Hokusai book and will post an image of it.
