Dear Art Educators (and Net Gold Members),

Sean Grigsby posted this art site to Net Gold list (Thanks Sean - I am
re-posting for those who may have missed it).

Komiko S. McKee
http://www.kumiko-art.com/

Japanese artist now living in US. Beautiful oil paintings on masonite
- mixing traditional Japanese culture and pattern with a contemporary
look - rich colors. Komiko uses classical techniques to create
realistic images that are partly abstract. Be sure to see the Koto
Gallery - The KOTO gallery contains The Tale of Genji, Noh Mask, and
Gion, which are paintings based on Japanese culture.

I will be adding a link on my page of Asian art and also on the
Japanese Collage Lesson Plan.

There are some nude drawings in her early works (so I will say that
early works have a mature theme as a warning to art teachers. If I
include the word nude, that page will be blocked on school servers).
