My Mother's home - The pavillion and the ponds

Japanese Tea Garden - San Antonio, Texas

This is only half of the expansive Tea Garden in San Antonio, Texas where my mother was raised. She remembers playing and studying throughout the garden during her youth. This was her backyard. As I visit the garden year after year, it has been the inspiration for many paintings and prints with a Japanese-Texan point of view.
