This week I went to the Boroichi fleamarket in Tokyo. It has been held twice a year in the same place for over 430 years, and is an intangible folk cultural asset of Japan. 
I wandered, browsed and sketched, 
and bought a beautiful little sobachoko. When I got home, I did some watercolour sketches of it...
I enjoyed it so much, I did a few more, looking at old sobachoko online for reference.
And then made a little design of my own...
