"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Daily Life: Galerie Judith Engelstad
Art stands alone without any commentary from me. These paintings are vivid and astounding. Here is a link to the gallery in Sausalito, California where they are currently displayed. The artist's name is Lena. Enjoy.
