Fujita Fumio 藤田文夫, 1933-
Fumio Fujita graduated from the Musashino College of Fine Arts and has been an
active woodblock print artist since 1963. His subjects are usually landscapes
reduced to the essentials of design and lines, but without becoming too abstract.
His later designs often show forests and are more stylized.
