Scheduled to Make Their Debut Next Year

They will be available on a semi-commercial basis beginning next year. Do they have any commercial value? Well, let's see how it turns out :) 来年、試験販売の予定。売れるでしょうか？ものは試し（笑）。

Across the Pacific

Scott, a talented artist based in Texas,suggested that we swap our assemblages. So I told him to choose whatever he likes from this website. Oddly enough, his choice was Dodong. LOL. 

And these are what I received from Scott today. Very inspiring! I always take a cue from his work. Thanks Scott. You should receive mine in a couple of days!

Lovely Christmas Gift

Sting and Tabatha were so thrilled when they opened a Christmas gift from Kanako.

Wow, look! It’s wasanbon!  

They're too cute to eat. Thanks a lot, Kanako! 

Dronkie's New Life in Hokkaido

Luckily, Dronkie was adopted by Kanako’s family and now lives in Hokkaido. 

"Wow! My first time to see snow! I should have brought strawberry syrup, which goes well with shaved ice!"

WE ARE THE WORLD

Cyndi Lauper's performance stands out among others. Don't you think so?

Here's my version of WE ARE THE WORLD:

Terminal Frost

Pink Floyd's Terminal Frost (from Momentary Lapse of Reason) is my favorite tune. It always inspires me, and this time is no exception. 

It has turned into something weird, but I really enjoyed the process of creating it. 

Yosaku the Lumberjack

Trimmed this straw whisk a bit to sweep the desktop

 And recycled the waste into a raincoat for Yosaku the lumberjack
