I painted this Swatow-style mug for my friend from Kyushu. When I received a message from her saying she would visit me, I started painting this.

Since she loves the color yellow, I decided to paint some yellow flowers. She also likes Japanese style, so I designed it in the Swatow-style.

When I gifted it to her, she really loved it and said that it would be wonderful to have the only one mug in the world!

I'm really happy to hear that.

She stayed at my house for only two days, and it was too short to hang out. I suggested her to stay longer next time. She'll come back next May, and I'm already looking forward to it. We are already planning on seeing a bunraku performance, having lunch at Kitcyo, and visit an English garden.

After she returned home, she sent me some butter.

I had my homemade scones with the better, and they were delicious! I immediately sent her the same photo that I posted.

I'll write about one more thing we did sometime soon.
