Sandpaper
notes: label: Description
content: This square of sandpaper was an important part of Sadao Oka's tool box. He used this to smooth and round out the shape of each bird, making them look much more realistic and natural. With tools and supplies limited due to incarceration, the precious few tools he was able to have became extremely important to his work, and the determination and perseverance that is reflected through his art.
