Kokeshi Project for Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre's BLOOM fundraiser.

The Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre is throwing an art auction fundraiser on April 25th (more info here) and I am among the 100 artists to design and paint a Kokeshi doll for auction at the event. Here's my version! (the back symbol is a chinese patternized version of the character "shou"- "long life")
