GUILTY PLEASURE by Angelo Lopez.  16" diameter.  Acrylic on canvas.

My wife loves sushi.  With knowledge of this, on our first date, I took her to a sushi restaurant in Japan Town in San Jose.  Since that time, we have gone to several sushi restaurants in San Jose, Sunnyvale, Mountain View and the wider San Francisco Bay Area.  

I have several fond memories of sitting in the sushi bar with my wife and nieces watching sushi boats float past me.  My nieces picked up the love of sushi from my wife.

The ironic thing is that I really don't like eating fish.  But I love California rolls.  And there is a great spam sushi that would appeal to anyone who grew up as a military brat, as I did.  

This painting would be a great gift for a friend or spouse who loves sushi.
