The pack rat in me is sad to see my portrait of Tokushoryu go, but the artist in me is happy that it’s going to a new home.

Tokushoryu
I finally finished this portrait of Tokushoryu.
Tokushoryu was the lowest rank rikishi in the January 2020 sumo tournament...and he won it all. With all the craziness going on in the world, I've been making a conscious effort to look for positive things in my life. I've often returned to watching Tokushoryu's Cinderella victory in the January basho for a bit of light in all this gloominess. Here's my ode to his January victory.
Here's his final match when he won it all. Enjoy.
