Not a great sign that I forgot on the second day, right? Ahah. Whatever. Woofer’s was supposed to be colorpicked from each member’s outfits but that looked SUPER ugly. And Kimono’s off-white there was supposed to be a blue from the kimonos themselves but it just refused to contrast well enough. Also, I just found out my classes for the next school term and I’m going to be back in Japanese class for the first time in 7 years, what a coincidence right?

"IS THERE A GEISHA IN THE HOUSE?" -- IN MICHI HIROTA'S OWN WORDS.
NOTE: I cropped the hell out of this "Kimono My House" outtake and am currently using it as my cellphone wallpaper. Michi is such fun to look at!
MADELINE BOCARO: "What led you to become a model on the cover of "Kimono My House"?"
MICHI: "We were both actresses touring with a Japanese theatre company in Europe and the USA. My husband Joji Hirota was musical director. A record company (Island records) approached our director looking for Japanese women, and we were asked to do the modeling. I am the woman on the right (with a fan)."
MADELINE: "Do you know the whereabouts of the geisha on the left?"
MICHI: "I have no news about the other lady since I left the Japanese theatre company at that time, however her maiden name was Kuniko Okamura. She married a Frenchman soon after finishing our tour and bore 4 children."
MB: "What kind of instructions did Ron Mael, or the photographer give you?"
MH: "We were not told much, they just let us move freely. We didn’t know how to arrange our hair properly or how to fix our kimono. There was nobody to dress us. The session took 4 or 5 hours."
MB: "Karl Stoecker also photographed models for the ROXY MUSIC album covers. Did you ever work with him again?"
MH: "I’ve heard that he is the one of the foremost photographers in the world, but unfortunately I never had a chance to work with him. (I would like to, if he is looking for an old Japanese lady!)"

• @pattistoecker Out Take of Karl’s Famous 1974 Album Cover for Pop Duo - Sparks - Kimono My House - one of the two models for the photo -Michi Hirota on the Left in this out take has said ‘I kept one Polaroid photo in which I looked rather kawaii (cute in Japanese), which Karl dropped on the floor. Hope this is OK with him. I keep it in my personal photo album.’ Love That !💗💜

Just wanted to represent my art on here as I’ve improved a lot and have even set up my own Etsy shop! I make a lot of digital and physical art and I only have a few listings at the moment but my most successful piece is currently Sparks Through The Years. I’m still rolling some stuff out too!
