Artist: Mihoko Hakata

Mihoko Hakata, a former Boston resident, has recently returned to her native Japan. She is an artist, model and a Happy New Year's baby!

Her mother called her "E.T." because she had big curious eyes and long fingers with lots of wrinkles. She loves to smile at strangers, and would like to spread happiness and "Relax and Feel Good" energy all over the world!
