Dragons and Japanese TV

 

My last dragons for the Gunma museum are colored. 
My daughter complained -  "No more Dragons Poppy! People were looking over the fence from the community center!!!"

It is the Japanese in her, wanting to hide.

I was on TV here Tuesday, but they cut out my best words. They asked me what I liked about Yanaka. I said, "Yanaka is full of spies and liars."

 

I meant it in the best possible way.

The same as Oneonta, my hometown, , my grandfather used to say, "Nobody buys the paper to get the news. Everybody knows the news, they buy the paper to see who got caught."

Tokyo winds

Nice cold day in Tokyo today.

I was working on one of the dragons outside and the wind kicked up.  I may have a chance to exhibit this guy at Koya-san holy mountain before it goes to the museum in Gunma.

It will be a busy dragon this spring, if it ever gets done.

new gold

Long dragons for the April exhibition at the Nakanosawa Museum are nearly done.  Yesterday I began working on smaller things, putting gold and silver on some of my roasted mud.
