My friend Akie brought me this most gorgeous mango,
when she & Miki came to visit me this past Saturday.
I decided to use it in a still life painting, before I consider tasting it!
For contrast, I included a porcelain chopsticks holder, a fish-shaped “hashioki”,
all setting on my earth-toned, batik-style tablecloth…
I just realized how long it’s been since I've picked up my paint brushes!
The extreme summer heat finds me indoors,
as my favorite summer activity, swimming,
is not possible in the public pools…
Until there is a strong rain, and/or cooler night temps,
the pools' water temps are now at 33c (91F) and the outside air temp at 35c, (95F)
that would be a no, thanks...

It was very warm for April yesterday, almost 80F.(26.5C)
I had an Etegami session at my house,
my girlfriend Kristy and her son Haru, joined me.
In my neighborhood, I noticed a fantastic shrub of camellia;
the lovely ‘Iwane Shibori’…
Although fading in the warm weather, (a late winter bloom)
the marbled pink-red colors caught my eye…
I got permission and cut one for our subject today…
