The free standing drawing is mounted on luan and then constructed in a set like manner. Its purpose is not to be a sculpture, which would imply illusion, but rather to exist simply as a surface.

We visited Tunbao, an ancient village inhabited (still, to some extent) by a group of Han - the offspring of those that were sent to 'colonize' the area back in the Ming dynasty, about 600 years ago.
Many of them still wear the traditional costume and live according to the old traditions - although in the last few years the thrust of modernity has arrived in Tunbao too.

The Shriver is another of the queenpost structures located in the open countryside of Greene County. It is covered with random-width unpainted vertical board siding on both sides and portals, has a sheet metal roof and a deck of crosswise planking. Fairly wide length-wise openings immediately under the eaves are the only side opening on the bridge. The Shriver is reinforced with steel I beams and rests on cut stone abutments that appear to have been laid dry and has wingwalls of similar material that extends a little above the road level.

This is the "new" temple being built, entirely by hand with hand carved and quarried rock sent from India. This is at the Kauai Hindu temple. It is a beautiful structure being built with love and incredible craftmanship. The detail of the carvings is absolutely amazing.

This piece was chosen to represent structure in a forest environment because it shows some examples of mature and younger trees with contrasting structures. This was also chosen because all of the plants depicted in it are deciduous and a thick brown layer of dead leaf litter can be noted on the forest floor and leaves that are still green above.

Nikkō Tōshō-gū (日光東照宮) is a Tōshō-gū Shinto shrine located in Nikkō, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan.
Together with Futarasan Shrine and Rinnō-ji, it forms the Shrines and Temples of Nikkō UNESCO World Heritage Site, with 42 structures of the shrine included in the nomination. Five of them are designated as National Treasures of Japan, and three more as Important Cultural Properties.
Tōshō-gū is dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. It was initially built in 1617, during the Edo period, while Ieyasu's son Hidetada was shōgun.[1] It was enlarged during the time of the third shōgun, Iemitsu. Ieyasu is enshrined there, where his remains are also entombed.[2] This shrine was built by Tokugawa retainer Tōdō Takatora.
During the Edo period, the Tokugawa shogunate carried out stately processions from Edo to the Nikkō Tōshō-gū along the Nikkō Kaidō. The shrine's annual spring and autumn festivals reenact these occasions, and are known as "processions of a thousand warriors". Also part of the beauty is the row of majestic trees lining the roadway, termed the Cedar Avenue of Nikkō.
Five structures at Nikkō Tōshō-gū are categorized as National Treasures of Japan, and three more as Important Cultural Properties.[3][4] Additionally, two swords in the possession of the shrine are National Treasures, and lots other objects are Important Cultural Properties. Famous buildings at the Tōshō-gū include the richly decorated Yōmeimon, a gate that is also known as "higurashi-no-mon". The latter name means that one could look at it until sundown, and not tire of seeing it. Carvings in deep relief, painted in rich colors, decorate the surface of the structure. The next gate is the karamon decorated with white ornaments. Located nearby is a woodcarving of a sleepy cat, "Nemuri-neko", attributed to Hidari Jingorō.
Five-story pagoda at Nikkō Tōshō-gū
Three Wise Monkeys
The stable of the shrine's sacred horses bears a carving of the three wise monkeys, who hear, speak and see no evil, a traditional symbol in Chinese and Japanese culture.
The original five-storey pagoda was donated by a daimyō in 1650, but it was burned down during a fire, and was rebuilt in 1818. Each storey represents an element–earth, water, fire, wind and aether (or void)–in ascending order. Inside the pagoda, a central shinbashira pillar hangs from chains[5] to minimize damage from earthquakes.[6]

Stone steps and Torii to Ieyasu's tomb
Ieyasu's enshrinement
Hundreds of stone steps lead through the cryptomeria forest up to the grave of Ieyasu. A torii at the top bears calligraphy attributed to Emperor Go-Mizunoo. A bronze urn contains the remains of Tokugawa Ieyasu.
In 2008 Yuri Kawasaki became the first female Shinto priest ever to serve at Nikkō Tōshō-gū.[7] （From Wikipedia）
