The most peaceful times of my childhood in Japan were spent sketching with watercolors. From my brush came scenes of the busy cargo harbor of Tokyo, the ancient city in Kyoto, and the quiet fishing villages of Japan.
I graduated
with a degree in electrical engineering and remained in electronics engineering
and/or corporate management throughout my career. I traveled extensively in
Europe, Asia and USA on business. During these trips I was drawn to the
beautiful landscapes, powerful cityscapes, and the ordinary people living in
those cities and villages. These visual experiences have been my motivation to
paint.
I am a self
taught watercolorists and paint my watercolors intuitively and with much
emotion. I am particularly fascinated with the interplay of light and shadow
and how it animates the daily activities of ordinary people. My vivid memories
preserved in sketches and photos now serve as my resource material and
inspiration for painting the everyday subject of light, shadow and people.
