A little something about myself...

I am an oil painter with passion based in Japan and also a housewife. I have recently relocated to Osaka city.

I had experienced a  traumatic illness a few years ago. There are tough times in life but thank god and  my husband  that I am  fine now. During that difficult time, I swore to myself that "If I don't do it now and I'll regret for the rest of my life."

After working as a designer and illustrator, I return to analog methods. To be a painter has been my childhood dream. I am making that dream come true, NOW! It's never too late.

I have been drawing oil painting for several years now. I attended a painting school for a short time, but it didn't last long due to my husband's job that we had to move quite often. Since then, I draw with inspiration of Instagram and YouTube. I realized that I learn a bit on my own through trials and errors. What a great era that my teachers are from all over the world.

I will continue to learn and draw the world I see.
