He was well-known for his Japanese-style paintings and intricate woodblock prints, and supported himself as a dealer of Asian antiques. In the mid-1930s, when interest in Japanese woodblock prints was extremely popular, Kakunen designed four woodblock prints (three of them depicted California landscapes and one of a parrot) and had them printed and published in Japan.\n </p>\n <p>\n  During World War II, Tsuruoka was incarcerated by the United States government at the\n  <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Poston_(Colorado_River)/\" title=\"Poston (Colorado River)\">\n   Poston,\n  </a>\n  Arizona camp, where he painted haunting images of the surrounding desert landscape and flora. He was also made craft objects of inlaid wood and set up craft exhibitions to display the work in camp.\n  <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref1_1-0\">\n   <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref1-1\">\n    [1]\n   </a>\n  </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n  After the war, he and his family moved to New York City where he resumed his career in the antiques business, opening Daruma Art Framing Store and Gallery.\n </p>\n <p>\n  He died in 1979 in New York.\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n  <b>\n   Authored by\n   <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Patricia_Wakida/\" title=\"Patricia Wakida\">\n    Patricia Wakida\n   </a>\n  </b>\n </div>\n <div id=\"citationAuthor\" style=\"display:none;\">\n  Wakida, Patricia\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n    For More Information\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <p>\n    Gesensway, Deborah, and Mindy Rosenman, eds.\n    <a class=\"external text offsite\" href=\"https://archive.org/details/isbn_9780801495229\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n     <i>\n      Beyond Words: Images from America's Concentration Camps\n     </i>\n    </a>\n    .
