About this artwork
Artist Jose H. Alvarenga buys unique models, like this figurine, to use as inspiration for future paintings. He does not paint them right away but keeps them as reference pieces until the right idea emerges. In this still life, Jose wanted to pay homage to a Japanese song he loves, titled "I Look Up As I Walk" by Kyu Sakamoto, also known as Sukiyaki. As a fun detail, he wrote the song title and the original singer's name in Japanese.
