[Biography]

August 1982

Born in Amami Oshima and raised in Chigasaki, Shonan Province, he attended elementary, junior high and high school, and a school right in front of the sea. Since childhood, he has sharpened his senses with electone and dance, and has been doing coloring books and puzzles without worrying about time. Because his father was in the fashion industry, he grew up feeling color honestly.

2003 -

He worked in a mental hospital, where he appreciated the art of his patients and became interested in the great influence of color on the mind. Begin to study art therapy and fashion psychology.

In 2013

He suddenly began to feel that he wanted to change something about art, which he was not good at, and began to study pastel art. From there, I began to feel the charm of mandalas and pastel Japanese art over and over again.

In 2021

A friend who is active overseas told me that my paintings have the power to deliver courage and kindness to many people, and they asked me, "Why don't you become an artist?"
