		Eitoku utilizes a cursive mode of painting (sotai) with coarse and rapid brushstrokes which create variations in the tone of the ink making stark contrasts in darks and lights over the entire piece.

		By expanding the repertoire of the Kano artists to include boldly rendered brushwork and bright colors, Masanobu's son Kano Motonobu (1476–1559) widened the school's appeal and devised a style that merged the ink and brushwork emphasized in Chinese paintings with the decorativeness, color, and pattern associated with
		Kano Sanraku (1559–1635), one of Eitoku's adopted sons, in his turn added a greater sense of elegance and decorativeness to Eitoku's style, capturing current interest in sophistication and sumptuousness.
		The Kano school style was transmitted even more widely by artists who were trained by Kano painters but not officially connected with family studios, and by rival artists imitating their style to suit patrons' demands.

		Since the Kano studio produced large numbers of this type of bird-and-flower painting at the end of the sixteenth century, a highly suitable match by two painters could be achieved, one that has endured to the present.

		A member of the famous Kano School of Art started by his grandfather Kano Motonobu, Eitoku was a skilled artisan who by his early twenties was being commissioned by the daimyos of Japan.
		The style used in the panels was quite different from past versions of fusuma paintings because Eitoku decided to dispense with the common vertical motifs such as thick tree trunks in the corners of the room that emphasized the columns.
		In these open areas; Eitoku dispersed smaller motifs of animals and nature with minimal amounts of gold dust in open areas to aid in the aesthetic which matched the rest of the room.

		Having received his early training from his grandfather, (2) Kano Motonobu, he is said to have shown extraordinary artistic talent as a child, and by his early 20s he had established himself as the leading painter of Kyoto.
		According to Kano Eino (1631–97), the author of the Honcho gashi (History of Japanese painting’; 1693), Eitoku developed this taiga style because the increasing demand for his work meant that he had no time for meticulous brushwork, and he began to use a coarse brush of straw for his ink painting.
		Eitoku is best known for his screen-and-wall paintings in vivid colours and gold leaf (kinpeki shohekiga), but he also worked in a saiga (‘small’ or ‘elaborate painting’) style.

		As we have seen in connection with Kano Eitoku's screen paintings with views of Kyoto, the painters of the Kano school were the first to exploit this subject.
		Eitoku's uncle, Kano Hideyori (who died in I557), left a screen painting (now in the National Museum, Tokyo) representing the inhabitants of Kyoto admiring the beauty of the red maples on Mount Takao.
		This elegance and freedom already tend to exceed the academic bounds of the Kano school, and we are therefore inclined to attribute to the same artist some of the scenes of popular life decorating the castle of Nagoya.
