My friend and neighbor Arthur Okamura stopped by yesterday to show me a series of paintings he’s just done of asparagus, done in tempera paint and tempera watercolor paint (the latter a new product). Arthur is a delightful and productive artist, working in many mediums, always exploring new frontiers.

I love seeing his recent work. Thank you. He was one of my favorite teachers at CCA in early 1970's. I still think of him when I am painting. I wish him well. There is a CCA alumni citique group on Facebook and I was just mentioning his influence.
