Just back from the party for the event to promote sake brewing in wooden barrels. Here's a shot of the assembled oke:

It was a bit disappointing that they didn't put a copy of my print on display next to it ... without that, my part of the project just looks like a black smear!
The event, by the way, was a huge success ... many hundreds of people jammed the hall to hear the speakers; it was literally standing room only. Seems there's at least some interest in Japan in utilizing and preserving old traditions ... at least when o-sake is concerned! :-)
