tokushoryu
Well I finally got this produced. My favourite sumo portrait to date is in t-shirt form! DM me if you’re interested in getting some sumo swag.
It’s a black cotton, 10 0z. large t-shirt, $45 CAN.
Email me at wilfredw.wong@gmail.com if you’re interested.
My niece gave me a great idea to expand the merchandising of my sumo portraits. I have printed 5 of my sumo portraits onto ceramic tile coasters. They have arrived and they look great! (top, l-r: Terunofuji, Takayasu, Tachiai. Bottom, l-r: Asanoyama, Tokushoryu)
I love when clients send me pictures of my art hanging in their new homes. My painting arrived in San Fransico and it looks great. Be well, big boy. I’ll miss you,
The pack rat in me is sad to see my portrait of Tokushoryu go, but the artist in me is happy that it’s going to a new home.
Sending these Takayasu and Tokushoryu giclées to a new home.
If interested in purchasing these or any other giclées, please visit my store.

I finally finished this portrait of Tokushoryu.
Tokushoryu was the lowest rank rikishi in the January 2020 sumo tournament...and he won it all. With all the craziness going on in the world, I've been making a conscious effort to look for positive things in my life. I've often returned to watching Tokushoryu's Cinderella victory in the January basho for a bit of light in all this gloominess. Here's my ode to his January victory.
Here's his final match when he won it all. Enjoy.
