  The story behind it , hehehe

  This is a family of rare Japanese turtle-ducks , The father is watching as his children catch a big wave. The family outing is made possible by the full moons illumination, otherwise the father turtuckin would of lead them home a few hours earlier, just to be safe……..and..hmmm lets see…The moma Turtle-duck is at home in the tree-house near the shore, she does not enjoy the night swimming as she did when she was a Turtle-duckling…..but, next time she will accompany them on a day trip!…..to be continued…..

  Rose garden [My moleskine art]
  I stamped an eraser stamp on the moleskine sketchbook. I wondered what to draw. I draw roses on this.

  My holiday lunch time

  I drew the scenes that my lunch times on my moleskine sketch book. The lunch time is very important for my lovely life. I’m Japanese, so I love Japanese foods. And, I like Italian foods, Chinese foods, Western dishes and Fusion cuisines. Today, I ate the wheat noodle with tempura. The wheat noodle is “UDON ” in Japanese. This was very good. On weekday, I usually take a lunch near my office. On holiday, sometime I have brunch on my house. These illustration is my holiday lunch menu.

  This is one of the 88 miniature temples on a mountain path behind Ninna-Ji in Kyoto.
  I stopped momentarily to catch my breath and do this quick sketch of a charming little six sided temple. This is a mini pilgrimage for those who cannot do the real one on Shikoku. It is called Hachiju Hakkasho and is a lovely hike off the beaten tourist path.

  I have always been fascinated by these stone images in Japan. The peaceful faces, the red bibs and the wool hats are so charming. This group sits in the cemetery of a small temple behind the Kyoto Okura Hotel. I visit them twice a year.
