I am making some models of a couch for my show next year…..
ダン蔵 and I received a beautiful postcard from Lisbon, Portugal. I really like the tile of Portugal. I also like the ceramics of the Royal Copenhagen. Bule is not my favorite color but I like these blue objects. Maybe, deep in my mind, I like blue.
