Mono No Aware

I finished my sakura painting and it's now up for auction on ebay. 100% of the proceeds from the auction will go to the American Red Cross to benefit Japan.

The title "Mono No Aware" is a Japanese term often associated with cherry blossoms and "used to describe the awareness of impermanance, or the transience of things, and a gentle sadness (or wistfulness) at their passing."

The auction ends Thursday, March 31st at 8pm PST. Enjoy, good luck and thank you for bidding :)

Sakura

Work in progress.

Once it's done, I'll be putting it up for auction through ebay and donating the money to the American Red Cross. A small contribution, but every little bit helps with such an enormous disaster. The people of Japan and their families and friends are in our thoughts and hearts.
