Bokashi is the hand-wiped colour gradation of Japanese woodblock prints: a deep band of pigment at the top of the sky that fades into bare paper, a warm glow rising from the horizon.
This set brings that look to your layouts. 40 large backgrounds with the quiet imperfections of a real print: washi paper fibres, soft brush streaks, a hint of wood grain, and pigment that breaks into grain where it thins out.

HOW TO USE
Open the JPG in any editor and place your design on top. Set a file to Multiply over your own artwork to print the gradation onto it. Rotate or flip for more variations.
HOW IT IS MADE
Every background is drawn by our own code, layer by layer, the way a print is built: paper first, then one to four passes of colour. We use an AI coding assistant to help write that code. No photographs, scans or image-generation models are used.
LICENSE
Use in unlimited personal and commercial projects, including items for sale where the background is part of a larger design. You may not resell, share or redistribute the files on their own or as part of another asset pack.
