1989年生まれ。東京都在住。

​

30歳で日本画に出会い、その美しさに魅了されてからは岩絵具で絵を描いています。

​

絵のモデルは目の前の甥っ子です。

​

子どもを描いていると、かつて自分も子どもの頃に持っていたはずの、

周りのあらゆるものが輝いて見えた純粋なまなざしを思い出します。

​

と同時にあっという間に過ぎてしまう子ども時代の儚さを感じます。

​

​試行錯誤しながらも自分が愛おしいと感じる子どもの姿を描き続けていきたいです。

 

​

 Born in 1989. Living in Tokyo, Japan.

 

I met Japanese painting at the age of 30, and since being impressed by the beauty of mineral pigments called “Iwaenogu” used in it, I’ve been drawing with that.

​

The model of my paintings is my nephew.

​

Drawing children reminds me of the pure gaze I must have had as a child,

when everything seemed to shine brightly.

​

At the same time, I feel the fragility of childhood, which passes by in a blink of an eye.

​

Through trial and error, I would like to continue to draw children whom I find beautiful.
