Description I've been inspired by the recent crappiness "Memoirs of a Geisha" (ooooooomygod it sucked so bad ) and have been emerging myself into Japan again. Getting back into to groove and all that. But I've been scouring the internet for pics of Kyoto geiko and kimono. Too much fun!!

Anyhoo.... I've been looking an awful lot at [link] and it has these AWESOME pictures from Odori Programs back from 1917-1950's. Sooooo beautiful and antique-y. ^______^

So yeah, this piece is inspired by those.

I like it. It has a sketchy look to it without seeming sloppy, which is hard to pull off.

Thank you! I'm glad you think I was able to pull off the sketchy/antique look! I fussed with that for a while!
