Crane Wife and "Myth" at Modern Eden

Sorry I'm late in posting this, but between travelling to Japan and work deadlines, haven't had a chance to update here!

Wanted to let you know of my latest work hanging at the very wonderful Moden Eden gallery here in San Francisco! I was lucky enough to be part of their latest group show, "Myth," and returned to a subject I find myself coming back to time and time again; the Japanese folktale The Crane Wife.

More info "behind the work" and purchase info here!

I failed to post about the opening reception back on July 14th, but luckily, there is a closing reception in conjunction with North Beach First Fridays on Friday, August 3, 2012.   A special musical performance by North Beach acoustic guitarist, Mark Simons (marksimons.net) will be featured. The closing reception will be held at 403 Francisco Street from 6-9pm.

Crane wife, part 2

another take on the crane wife for tonight!

Crane wife

Inspired by the Decembrists' song of the same name (and in turn, the Japanese myth)

I bet...

you thought I forgot! Wrong! I was just up late working to make a freelance project deadline, so even though I did it last night, lack of scanner makes it hard to post in a timely fashion, so this will have to do!

from the TF topic, Crane (this one's a gray crested crane to be exact!)
