First character means either 'big' or 'fire.' But it looks odd for either character. The others I'd need to work on a while, and the characters within the orange borders are too small to even see.

Back later ... i hope.
 
It is a modern mixed media peice and could be incoherent lol,Damm artist! Haha. Thanks for input and I'll get a closer pic of smaller character's HAPPY HUNTING ALL 😉

Yikes.

First and third characters contain five strokes (I draw them out, count the strokes, and look up the meaning). First one I got as near as I can guess. Second character...later. Third character I can NOT find! And only five strokes. Fourth, ' I'or ' motte,' depending on the reading, and meaning starting point, means, use, through, because. Fifth...lotsa strokes...later. I hope.

Second character: 11 strokes, 'Tei,' meaning stop. Whew.

Fifth and last character, cannot find exact match, but contains the character element for 'eye' or 'see,' and the element for 'divide.'

Crawling under blanket now to suck thumb.

I haven't...it's really to small to see much.

That other character is really bugging me...it's only five strokes!
As I stated it is modern mixed media art peice so it could be jumbled intentionally but I am going to add a close up soon,I actually am going to rest.Again THANKS for your input🖒

Just added a few close ups...THANKS&HAPPY HUNTING(ALL)!!!
 
Yikes.

Most of these are ten strokes and above and it's still not a clear image. There may only be one or two I couod 'get.'

It would need a native speaker to unravel the rest of them, so if you're anywhere near a university, Japanese community, or art museum, see if someone there can help you.

Sorry not to be able to offer better help than this.
 
I used Google Translate and I got the following:

Dishwasher standard washing bowl machine
Ice Box Frozen Walkin
refrigerated freezer
High efficiency cleanliness

Nicely done, sir! I use the old-fashioned way of drawing the characters, counting the strokes, then looking them up in a Japanese language reference book. It's kinda fun when they're simple. ;)

Tokenhead, those are on the small pic - Seems like a random ad for a 'walk in' freezer and washing machine?
 
It looks like one can wash their shorts then freeze them to wear on a hot summer day! :laughing7:
 
Not Japanese.


Chinese...
 
Take it to a chinene restaurant. I had a brass appliance badge in Chinese so took it to the local Chinese restaurant. The guy looks at it and say's I'm not chinese, I'm Vietnamese kinda huffy. I said i thought you were American. He smiled and read what he could then took it to the back. Turned out to be from a big Shanghai dept store that closed before WWII.
