This photo story introduces some of the art and beauties I found at the Westin Hotel Osaka where I stayed recently. The Westin Osaka is a five-star gorgeous American hotel, and I found some of the ornaments and furniture here to be fascinating. The huge ceramic art piece displayed on the wall in the lobby particularly mesmerized me. This is similar to those I saw at Otsuka Museum of Art located in Tokushima, in which all the art pieces displayed there are reproductions truthfully copied on ceramic boards.

Lovely flower decorating her hair goes well with the blue color of her kimono and matches the color of the Obi sash. Perfect!
