I just randomly discovered a Japanese artist whose work is sooooo wonderful! They are very surreal, yet capture many landscapes and Japanese-ness of Japan. CHECK IT!!!

I posted about this on Tumblr before but now that I've moved to Blogger, let me say it again: I love peacocks! I love their SUPER rich blue and green hues and their iridescent-ness. And look at this crazy half-white fellow I found! I am excited about my new painting, which has two girls holding a fiesty peacock. I'm debating whether I should stick real peacock feathers on to it, or if that is cheesy. What do you think?
