Those are beautiful! One of my best friends is from Tokyo and on her 18th birthday (ages ago..hahah) she got a stunning kimono...I remember being a part of the traditional celebration and how amazing that kimono looked...Its truly a form of art!
Kisses my dear
So beautiful. I can't believe they're paintings. That girl's a talent for sure.
Now THAT is painting. When they make it look so life-like, it just amazes me (-:
I can hardly believe these are paintings! They are exquisite. Thank you for sharing.
I love kimono, and was lucky enough to have lived in Japan many years ago for a year, where I was given the most amazing kimono for a man. We usually associate them with women, however men wear them as well. Even though plain in colour it is made of the most beautiful silk/wool blend!
Gorgeous,
What ravishing Madame Butterflies.

It's so beautiful! Kimonos and Japanese prints are amazing! It's one of the things I really love and would love to own some of this beauty!
These are beautiful. In a way they remind me of some of Gerhard Richter's work, especially his Betty painting, which I love too.
Oh wow these are just beautiful pieces and love the others on her site.
I have two Kimonos, one wedding one and one very similar to the first here...from memory, been packed away for some time :(
