2014: A year of Shishi -- Chinese Lion-Dogs -- March 22 and 23

More ShiShi -- 'Good luck Chinese-Lion Dog' for today.. and yesterday..

2014: A year of Shishi -- Chinese Lion-Dogs -- 3.21.2014

3. 21. 2014

Here is the dog that showed up today -- drawn at a meeting I was at, on a paper towel. These Shishi are veeery interesting -- they scan ok -- but interesting things happen when I try to save them to the hard-drive, or upload them to Facebook, or here. There is a certain amount of resistance! Must be a powerful symbol. Very potent symbol.

My good fortune from this, is your good fortune. Any errors, are due to my fault, and my fault only.

2014: A year of Shishi -- Chinese Lion-Dogs

I was reading a book on Katsushika Hokusai -- one of Japan's most famous artists -- he was renown for the block print. He's probably one of the finest block-printers in the history of art. Even if you don't think you know him, you know him, because his images have been endlessly reproduced. I read starting in 1842 he drew shishi -- Chinese Lion-Dogs  -- one for each day, for a year. Because I have a ceramic shishi -- I decided to do the same. I started on 3.11.14. I'm not feeling unlucky, but why not increase the luck and see what it brings me? Then I can share my good luck with you!
