Echizen Crabs and Narcissus 2012.10.11
Owners of some shops in Fukui said they want to sell something related to crabs and narcissus as souvenirs from Fukui.
Echizen crabs ....... Usually every November fisheries here are allowed to catch them until the next year February. The crabs are well known in Japan for their good taste. I think they look also cool to have long legs ; ) . Let me try to draw one ! ....... it doesn't look like Echizen one with his round body.....
Narcissuses ..... Each prefecture in Japan has its own flower. Narcissuses are Fukui's because they bloom in winter time along the sea coast, which is known as the seasonal scenery. Let me try again .... does it look like the real ? Maybe the number of the petals is wrong !?
( I used Echizen washi paper ! )
