Norwegian Wood (ノルウェイの森)

Not based on the Beatles song but instead on the Japanese author's, Haruki Murakami's novel by that name, ノルウェイの森 (Noruwei no Mori). A coming of age, loss of innocence story set in the sixties (been there, done that) in Japan (been there but in my sixties, not the sixties). ;-)

By the way; A movie version of the novel is scheduled for release, in Japan, December of this year. Hum. I just may try to be down there then so I can see it.

By the way II: If, in the picture title you see, inside the parentheses, Question marks, squares or other garbage, instead of katakana and kanjii it is because you do not have a Japanese fount on your computer, sorry.

Soft pastel on cheap construction paper 9 by 12 inches.
