Ukiyoe Theme

This theme was created after being inspired by the magnificent painting.

Background Story of Building Ukiyoe Theme:

Hi Coders!! I'm David a SWE who also loves ART and MUSIC. My classmates and I went on a school trip to an Art museum when I was 19 and I was appealed by the asthetic of Ukiyoe paintings.

Here are the points that Ukiyoe fascinated me:
  1. Most of Ukiyoe paintings are low saturation, so I can enjoy them for a long time without sore eyes also a great feature when it comes to coding.
  2. I really love Japnese Cultures and Ukiyoe bring those histories to present!
  3. Brush strokes of Ukiyoe paintings are really neat which matches my minimalistic vibe.

As above mentioned, I created this theme to share my love with everyone.
