"Remember When..." Original Painting

An ode to the weekends where your parents would sing karaoke and dance the night away while you ran around the banquet hall with the other kids your age until you got too tired. Your eyelids get heavy, your mind slowly starts drifting to other worlds, and eventually you fall asleep on the car ride home just to wake up as your parents open the car door and carry you to bed.

There were countless banquet halls where we'd celebrate engagements, weddings, and new babies back home in San Jose. For me, so many of these moments were held at Flourishing Gardens--a restaurant that may have closed down but lives on in my memories.
