Yayoi Kusama: I think of her as super-creative because she works in so many different worlds: paint, performance, film, sculpture.

She is known for an indefatigable work ethic, filling enormous canvasses with repetitive polka dots (her signature symbol). I didn’t see her show when she came to town. Did you?

My small effort with polka dots:

  1. 2 memories: I’m reminded of one of Dad’s favorite jokes (from some old comedian): “polka dotes! My favorite kind of dots!” When J and I were in Spain we visited Sevilla where everyone is mad for flamenco and bullfighting. Every woman wore polka dots. I sat in a park and just watched. Amazing! Seriously EVERYONE! xo k >
