“Chinese Trumpet Flowers”

1999

Gouache on Canvas
17” X 21”
45.5 cm x 53 cm

I decided to show this older painting of mine, today...

These flowers are making an appearance now,
and it reminded me of this painting.

I took new photos of it, it now looks as it should...

This painting was the last one I used black outlines on a canvas,
21 years ago!

“ These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You) ”

" White Ajisai, Mixed Field "

Yesterday, my friend Kei K.,
came out to join me for a visit to Kyodo No Mori Park.

It has been closed until recently, opening on 6/2.
This was my first time to visit since February’s plum blossom appearance.

It is now the season of “Ajisai”, (Hydrangea)
and this park is known for its many stunning varieties of them!

I haven't seen this flower festival before,
it was quite an experience!
