    Information about the artist:
    Shima Tamami (島珠実) (Hirosaki, August 11, 1937 – 1999, United States) was a Japanese artist and woodblock print maker.
    -Education: She graduated from the Women's College of Fine Arts in Tokyo in 1958 and became a member of the Women's Print Association (Jōryū Hanga Kyōkai) in 1959.
    In 1962 she won a travel grant to the United States to have her print Tori B (Bird B) included in James Michener's influential 1962 book and print portfolio, “The Modern Japanese Print, An Appreciation.” In his book, James Michener writes of the two female artists included in the portfolio, Iwami Reika (b. 1927) and Shima Tamami: "...for two women to win prizes in a competition such as this is no small triumph. It has never been easy for women to achieve prominence in Japanese art, and for two such young women to have done so is a remarkable achievement."
    Shima Tamami was active as a printmaker for only about ten years, with most of her work produced between 1959 and 1962. No more prints by her appeared after 1965. She moved to the United States and is said to have married an artist.
    Shima Tamami's designs are notable for their use of texture and especially for combining several striking wood grain patterns in one image. Her prints from the 1960s often feature imaginative images of birds, horses and landscapes.
