Mitama Matsuri (Lantern Festival)

Over the 3 day weekend (thanks to Marine Day) I was able to travel up to Tokyo and explore Yasukuni Shrine for the first time. It's out near Akiba in the Chuo Ward so it took me quite a while to get up to the East side of Tokyo. The following photos were shot on my D40X.

Self Portrait

It's Golden Week in Japan and that means holidays for most. I decided that it was time that I overhaul my website and work on a new self portrait. My old self- portrait was from November 2009 so I was more than over-due for a new one. Corel Painter and Photoshop (the usual). I included 2 close-ups.

Hanami/ Cherry Blossom Viewing

I haven't uploaded any of my photography in ages on this blog. Once a year (for about 2 weeks) a major event happens in Japan; cherry blossoms are in bloom! This year I travelled to Shinjuku and Ueno to celebrate. The following photos were taken w/ my Nikon D40X.

Dr. Sketchy's Tokyo

I've attended Dr. Sketchy's Tokyo two times since I've been living in Japan. I recently went back last Wednesday and as I went to post the sketches up here, I realized I had never posted September's sketch session up here. So here are some figure drawing sketches. 2- 20 min. sketches.

Day 30

Bus stop

バスストップ

This is the final day, my last post. Thanks to everyone for all of the support. Doing 30 paintings in 30 days was incredibly hard. I hope you all had a wonderful 2011. Onto 2012! ((I know I have a lot of ideas in the works))
