Tyrus Wong Centipede Kite Landing Santa Monica Beach 2012

[@gregorymowery8879]

There is an excellent obituary in today's NYTimes (12/31/16) about this fine American artist that is fair to the horrible treatment he received throughout his personal and professional life--a life that was filled with artistic accomplishment that can stand next to the very greatest American artists. These kites he created at the end of his artistic life show his creative spirit. They are awe-inspiring. Rest in peace, sir. You were an inspiration.
