SAORI "KIMONO Wrap"

A arranged "Margaret Coat" is now "Kimono Wrap".

Thanks to my friend Marcia who named this. It sounds very exotic!

Her husband also did a good job taking great picture of this.

This piece is sold.

I made this specially for last weekend's local art show "Undercover Artists".

I usually try to make something big for a show.

The second day(the last day) of the show, a lady purchased this.

She said, "Nobody has something like this."
Yes, that's true, because it's SAORI!

Thank you so much!

Undercover Artists Show -1-

Happy New Year!!

This year, I will try to blog at least once a week.

I do well on my Japanese blog, but not this English one.

I think that's because I need to post in English.....

Well, anyway, I really had a good weekend.

Very local artists including me and guest artists had a show called,

"Undercover Artists" in Carver, MN.

I've noticed in surburb, people less care about art compared to people in the cities.

Though there are many artists in our area. We need "ART" here in our county, too.

Four of us (three painters and I) started getting together once a week to exchange information and soon, we decided to do a show.

We had a good mailing list since we belong to "Art Consortium" that our country organized, so many people and our friends stop by for the opening Friday evening.

The venue was in a histrocial building that used to be a bank.
Usually the space is used for children's after school activity ccalled "Funky Minds".

We transformed into a "gallery" as we display our work.

There is still a safe door in the building and old hanging lights that were nice addition to the show.
