This is a memory of my days right after WWII while on Occupation Duty in Japan.

Just a little bit of exaggeration.

Not really Kassie. Some of the older women in the rice patties looked like they had French baguettes.

even so, Lung Tom, it makes me giggle!

Unless you have sold many of your paintings, I have noticed that they would make such wonderful keepsakes for your grandchildren or nieces and nephews. They all depict your colorful history. Perhaps bound along with a personal journal of sorts...I would consider them very precious.

Thank you Tami for your kind words. I have made booklets of my poetry for my children and grand children. Will have to think about one for watercolors.

Hi Tom, i like your paintings of "town" scenes better than people. I like Tami's idea of a booklet and maybe this can go in there as just a memory.

I agree with you Priti. I don't do people very well. I like mechanical junk best. But no matter what I paint, I like to paint rapidly.
