 I had big fun at Love Wins Art Auction at Ulrich Museum of Art yesterday!  Thank you to those of you who bid on my works, "Gifts Hexagon" and "Sweet Hexagon"! It was also a great opportunity to see many other Wichita artists' stunning work on the theme of love in their own unique mediums.  Happy Valentine's Day!

Recent Sold Paintings from "Sojourning" Series

As the end of the year approaches, I look back on this year and think about the many things for which I am grateful. I want to especially note that around the fall, several of my paintings from my "Sojourning" Series found their new home.  

I am very excited and I would like to thank all who have purchased them.  I sincerely pray that my paintings will bring blessings to each of their new home.

Here are these paintings.  Before sending them off to their new home and saying good-bye, I took many close-up pictures and pictures of them with myself.


年の瀬が近づき、一年を振り返りつつ、今年も色々感謝なことがあったなぁ...、と思わされています。特に秋ごろ、Sojourningシリーズの絵がいくつか一挙に新しい家を見つけたことを特筆したいと思います。

本当に嬉しいことで、お買い求め下さった方々に、心からお礼を申し上げます。またそれぞれの新しい家に、私の絵が祝福をもたらすことを祈っています。

これらがそれらの絵になります。新しい家に送り出す前に、多くのクローズアップした写真や自分と一緒に写っているを撮りました。
