I first encountered chalk art about 15 years ago.
At that time, I was running a restaurant, and the chalk art sign I saw on the way out was very nice and left an impression on me.
I tried to draw a chalk blackboard by imitating what I saw in my own store.
Not long after, I learned that it was a modern art called chalk art.
I was self-taught to draw for a while, but there is a chalk art association in Japan, and there are many courses.
I started learning chalk art in earnest nine years ago, and after about a year, I obtained a professional qualification and started working as a professional chalk artist.
Due to the influence of the coronavirus pandemic, I was unable to engage in professional activities, so I further honed my skills and aimed to become a chalk art instructor.
I obtained my teaching license in 2022 and am teaching a small chalk art class.
While also being a lecturer, I am working on blackboard art for offers from all over Japan.
Basically, there are many custom-made works, and there are few that I keep as my own works, but I would like to continue to draw various things with chalk art in the future.
In particular, he is good at drawing food and animals.
