Works
Cats are always full of energy and never lose their sense of freedom even when being around humans.
The cats in my works have such powerful personalities.
The owners of my "lovable twisted cats" series often tell me that they talk to their "cat" every day. The "cat's" face will look differently depending on the owner's feeling of the day.
Recently I have expanded "the twisted ones" series by adding other animals as motifs.
The motif (such as a black cat) is painted by a technique called "Tarashikomi" with rubbed ink on crumpled hemp paper.
In search of a new style of Nihonga that can survive a thousand years, I am trying out new painting materials, medium, and techniques in line with the Nihonga tradition, while paying special attention to the water that I use for my works.
