Satoru Aoyama, Yamanote Line (2003)


I am in love with this man's exquisite embroidery. Who'd have thought a train could look so beautiful?

You can read more about him here and see his work at Mizuma Art Gallery in Tokyo if you'll be there anytime soon. Sigh. If only...

I'd love you to leave me a message. Tell me what you like - and what you don't. Just remember that this is what we do in our family - it doesn't have to be what you do in yours...
