~Profile~
Artist Biography: Began self-taught artistic activities in 2023.
Born in 1984.
I specialize in detailed rendering, drawing on the characteristics of ASD.
I primarily paint large birds, aiming to capture the beauty of their feathers with a pen. I am particularly meticulous about drawing eyes, striving to imbue them with vitality. Furthermore, to convey the beauty of form, I place great emphasis on expressing my work through lines rather than color. I also wish to share Japanese culture, so I continue to experiment with incorporating patterns reminiscent of traditional Japanese textiles into my work. Driven by a desire to bring happiness to others, I often include heart motifs in my paintings.
When people see something beautiful, they feel happiness. To deliver that happiness, I am constantly exploring new ways to express beauty.
For me, painting is a ritual, a wish, a prayer, and a form of praise. I have dedicated myself to this craft in the past, and I will continue to do so in the future, striving to create works that resonate deeply with the heart.

Do cool people have to be cool? It’s okay to like cute things even if you’re cool. With that in mind, I drew an owl surrounded by pop-and-cute items. He may have a sassy expression, but he’s actually feeling very happy right now.
Dreamweaver

A pair of works featuring an owl that shows dreams and an anglerfish swimming through them. Are the dreams the owl shows mere illusions? No—they are surely a light of hope.
