nSingle mother. Japanese-Canadian. Empty-nester. Immigrant. Artist. Scientist. Wheelchair user. Community organizer. Survivor. Many words can accurately describe Keiko Honda, yet no one word or phrase fully encompasses the complex identity and fascinating life of this remarkable woman. Grappling with emptiness, loneliness, and the challenges of aging following her daughters departure for university, Keiko faces a new phase in her life--a life that has been filled with amazing achievements and debilitating setbacks--through deep introspection and reflection-in-action.n nThis memoir is an exploration of shifting identity, transition, artistic expression, and community building. It investigates the forces of attachment, belonging, cultural expectations, and the intricate dance between tradition and modernity. It reminds us of the transformative power of art and its ability to bring people together, especially in an era when isolation is epidemic. Illustrated throughout with Keikos watercolour paintings, ranging from moody landscapes to family and pet portraits to semi-abstract scenes of modern life, Hidden Flowers is an inspiring journey that will bolster the spirits of anyone who is experiencing a difficult transition in life or looking for a creative outlet.n
