Washing Fabric

Piece based on Japanese artwork by Andy Lyon.
"There's an element of mystery to the picture. It appears to be set in the mountains with a picture of Mount Fuji in the top left.
"There isn't really a background, this adds to the mystery as does the serious expression on the lady's face and the fact she's looking behind her. I've tried to capture the mood and various rhythms, there's rhythms in the flow of the water and in the washing process for example and I've used a variety of orchestration sounds with a variety of movement.
