Description
Although the Japanese Fu Dog is the central figure here, it is the combination of elements that gives this painting its name; I painted this based on the description of my friend’s grandfather’s courtyard, as he recalls it from his childhood in Okinawa. The fu dog, birds and flowers – especially the hibiscus – are all a reminder of that familiar and longed for family setting.
