What was your inspiration?

I kept hearing it was the year of the dragon and about the time I get this one done I was told it was the year of the snake at which point I threw my hands up. I guess part of me has respect for the oldest of cultures known. And while America is a great country we are still very young and learning still from those countries whom have been here for quite a while though politics change and people learn to adapt there are something which will forever remain the same. Like a porcelain spoon or pendant..though over time even these things will. Enjoy today, and what you hold in your hand right now-tomorrow it maybe no more-

What are you most proud of?

I had fun making it- and learned how to write in a language the lady at my favorite place to eat could read-

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Use your imagination more and learn to be still and quiet in the face of everything and anything. The longer you hold your thoughts the more they become reality- if you want to live in a better place, start at your own doorstep.
Have fun, take your time, and remember to be open to new ideas and old ones.
:)
happy Monday
