Aspiration

I take water as the main motif.
The land where I grew up has rivers and rice fields, and the sky is open,
so I have a sense of familiarity with such motifs and draw them in my work.
Water changes its form freely, which makes it attractive.
Aiming for free expression, I would like to devise
compositions, expressions, colours, and techniques.
