As part of my Anniversary-That-Wasn't-Present from M, I'm taking a Silkscreening class at the UCSD campus. Tonight was our first round of printing so I used one of my favorite subjects - a koi fish from Balboa Park. You used to be able to get up close to the Koi in the main reflection pond but the park officials roped it all off a couple months ago. Now the next best place to see Koi is at the Japanese Garden ($3 admission) or for a heftier admission and more crowds, the San Diego Zoo. There's also some Koi in a small pond at a house in the Kensington Neighborhood which I stumbled on pretty randomly 6 months ago. I probably couldn't find it again.
