ok, best do things right. Quite philanthopic of you mate.
I bought my sculpture about 15 years ago and shes had pride of place on my dining table since.
Pewter, and 18 inches tall.
The current wife would swap her for a flower arrangement in a heartbeat :O

I named her 'Herja'..........might be reaching a bit, but it seems to suit.

Didn't feel like doing a tank yet... instead decided on a little more painting
This is something I had gotten over two decades ago...it was badly damaged...but I still liked the image
for some reason I remembered her today

By the way gents.... one thing to take notice of...is the image of the cherry blossom branch...the artist who initially did this piece was definitely skilled with the brush...note the strokes ...simple singular...with pauses to make the joints where other branches spout from ;)
also the hair ...eyebrows and chops..they are single strokes of paint... the leaf pattern on her Kimono...also single strokes of color..pretty amazing piece of work :D
