Muramasa Kudo was born near Tokyo in 1948 and spent his childhood years in Aomori, a small and very beautiful city in rural northern Japan. At early age, he was taught the love and appreciation of the simplest things in line. The beauty of nature provided inspiration and greatly influenced his direction to create.
At the age of seven the artist began his training in the highly disciplined art from of calligraphy and it soon developed into his passion and challenge. At the age of thirteen, a teacher secretly entered his work into Japan's Youth Competion, and out of hundreds of thousands of entries Muramasa took his first place. The following year he took his first place again in the International All Asian Competition. Muramasa Kudo was recognized as World Class Master in the art of Calligraphy by the International World Committee Calligraphy Competition which fourteen countries had entries, and Muramasa took first place at age of fifteen.
Muramas traveled extensively, developing his craft from experiences around the world. With his work being received in America, he decided to settle in Los Angeles in 1980.
Muramasa Kudo's work encompasses Classical, Japanese Nouveau, Deco and Waterscapes, all manipulating the clean and simple line he was honored for so long ago in his calligraphy. Kudo is Zen philosopher and poet and the discipline shows through his work and in his life. His works has been collected by worldwide collectors, too many to mentioned here. He had numerous shows and exhibitions around the world.
