Japanese Art: Wheel Tracks #3

This picture shows a "tenugui" or headscalf or handtowel with a pattern developed from my previous wheel track painting. These tenugui were traditionally used to wipe the hands and face dry. These are worn in festivals and recently have become popular as souvenir gifts with various patterns printed on them.
