Work 3 in my Japanese inspired series (In PROGRESS)
Since I was a little girl, I have been enthralled by the Japanese culture. Old and new it holds a place in my heart. This third piece in my series takes a edgy surrealistic/animated edge to pay homage to the great country of Japan. My girls and I have been die hard fans of the Miyazake fims, as well as more classic pieces. I've been studying them with my girls, as well as Japanese art of tattoo. I have a feeling this series could extend on for quite a few pieces. It brings me joy. I would love to visit Japan with my husband and girls in tow.
