    I didn't understand "theory of 3 ducks" and I don't understand "Tohie" either. :confused:

    Neither do I.
    The signature: A Tohie (it has no dot behind the A).:)

    I was so busy puzzling over the usage of 'theory' that I totally missed the question was about the artist! :D

    No, the letters are a combined Kanji and Katakana....not A Tohie

    Ah well, with Tohie being a Japanese name and with the look of the name, I thought it could work.:playful:

    It clearly says "A doobie", which is what is needed to properly understand the theory of 3 ducks.

    Taking a few steps back from it, I see a lion's face. Honest, no weed required.

    Kind of looks like
    土口片旧 or 土口什旧 to me in Chinese and neither are a correct match to your piece.
    Still would prefer to see a photo of the complete item.
    Perhaps a close up of the text too.
