John R, thank you! Have been working for many months on this collection (big, fabulous and for the most part beautiful...although, sometimes I have to admit that there are pieces within the collection that make me smile and go OMG!). Collection was owned by a business person and collector from Hong Kong who was closely involved with venture capital and the publishing industry (eg, one of his roles involved working with a large Asian antiquities/arts publication).

I really don’t know if the items within the collection are genuine (...my intuition says that some are). The incredible part is that I’ve been able to engage a diverse group of people to help (ie, artists, antiquities/arts professionals, professors, and friends). I’m compelled to tell this man’s journey. I believe his family may have overlooked his passion for the arts and I think there is a story to be told here (perhaps I can help through the collection?).

I’m grateful for the exploration. Just wish I knew more... reminds me of poster...it read ’I don’t know where I’m going but I’m on my way’ =)
