This is a webpage for my links to various art and Japanese language websites as well as for resources for information on art. Some of the webpages have some or a lot of Japanese, don`t let this worry you. Just go in and look around(the Araki website is a good example-there is enough English that you can use the site). However, be aware that with many art sites, there may be nudity and/or provoking images that may be offensive to some.
Most sites are chosen out of personal interests, such as the Holga photo sites(I happen to be the proud owner of a hi-tech Holga 120s with a polaroid back). Others, websites of photographers, are the ones who are current and/or strong influences on me.
