Photo interpretation of this landmark in Japantown, San Francisco, California, USA (texture layer added)
*California Japanese American Civil Liberties Council:*
*The CJACLC's California Japantown Preservation Committee coordinated the development of a landmark honoring the history and heritage of ethnic Japanese neighborhoods. The design process involved the communities of the California's three remaining Japantowns in San Francisco, San Jose and Los Angeles's Little Tokyo.*
*Each landmark stands 9 feet high and weighs over 1,000 lbs. Its three faces depict the Issei pioneers, the WWII internment experience and current community life.*
*The landmark was funded by the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program with additional resources from Proposition 40 historical and cultural heritage preservation funds.*
*+Designed by : Louis Quaintance & Eugene Daub+*
*Poem by: Janice Mirikitani*
*Materials: bronze and stone*

I was a latecomer to photography, starting in my 60's (I am now in my 70's). Yet I have found great satisfaction and pleasure in creating digital art from my photographs. Taking pictures was a hobby until spine surgery in 2001 left me disabled and gave me the opportunity to learn about digital art and photographic software. I've been selling my work online and through local galleries since 2009. As with everything in life, it is not the destination that matters it is the journey. I am extremely grateful and appreciative of all who encourage me and enjoy my creations. Thank you!
