Lazy at Home and Gathering Clouds from Yuh Okano’s Newsletter 2021.
My thought and expression turned into scarves. This project is seasonal in October, I talked about my personal life but physically maybe related to any of you? What causes joint pain, arthritis of hip, knees, rheumatic etc. It is there… So, I did authentic.
A story from July Newsletter 2021
Hello everyone. I hope you have a wonderful summer.
This summer, I have more to spending my yard and outside.
I realized how lots of lives sharing with us in Chestertown MD.
A firefly and a fly—both have “fly” in their names, but they are different species. A firefly is a calm and likable insect, while a fly is constantly moving and is an annoying pest. But regardless of whether I like them or not, they maintain a balance in nature, I think. I drew these two contrasting creatures on my scarves.
I wish you good health –– let’s all do our best day by day.
