Trained in the fundamental study of Sumi and Washi(Japanese Paper). Continued work with a motif of trees and wood after that. Traveled alone to Amami-Archipelago and wandered in the tropical forest countless times in1970s. Was deeply moved by the gigantic roots of the tall trees and by the ominous clouds hanging low over the horizon.

Continuing the study of expression with “Sumi and Washi" and producing abstract works in monochrome even now.
