Drawn Together #7.

Rainbow. Walking into stores like Tokyu Hands or Itoya are my favorite places to look for art supplies. I love how everything gets perfectly displayed and how much choice there is in these stores. I make a list every year of what art or drawing supplies I need and then go hunt for them once I get to Tokyo. I love how all the pens, color pencils, and paints get lined up.

The Seed of an Idea.

The open road. This picture makes me want to get on a Nohi Bus and ride through the mountains of Gifu Prefecture. I took this while waiting to catch a bus from Takayama to Matsumoto. I love how the green pops from the neutral surroundings.

Ready. Set. Go! It’s a little late for Happy New Years from me—seeing as this is my first post this year. It’s been a mad sprint since New Years. To much work and very little play (Play=Time in the studio.). I’m bummed to have not posted more over the last three months. I’ll get back into the swing of things soon. Here’s a work in progress shot of some things to come. New Kokeshi shapes stand unpainted in the center back behind the building army of Forest of Woods 5 pieces. Then a surprise new figure is in front on my cutting mat. Hang tight, the Store will be updating soon.
