This is a start of what has turned into a new series dedicated to the Japanese folk craft Kokeshi. This figure was painted after assigning students to paint a keepsake object in a still life composition. I had this for a long time not knowing its origin. After searching on eBay I came across similar vintage figures in the genre of Kokeshi. They really have the capability of making me smile!
