When I was in Los Angeles last week, my friend Kim and I took a stroll around Little Tokyo. I saw this Maneki Neko in the window of a shop, and fell in love with it. Maneki Neko is a “beckoning cat” which is known as a welcoming cat, and is also thought to attract luck and fortune. I think I may get one for my next art show, and see if my sales improve! I want one that’s about 6 inches tall.
