Painting Miho Wada (Image: Martin de Ruyter, Nelson Mail)

The Jazz Festival has taken over Nelson with jazz in bars and cafes all over town. The planned jazz in the park was washed out yesterday and reconvened in a local church. I was there painting when one of the organisers spied me painting a funky Japanese jazz artist called Miho Wada.. He wrote me a long note asking to show Miho and the crowd the painting, with a big PLEASE! at the end.
