Inspired by the brilliance of fall colors, I used Sumi ink and Chinese watercolors to depict a happy fall feeling.
Artist's Statement:
I developed interest in art as a young woman, majoring in Fine Arts at George Washington University, studying at the Corcoran Gallery working in oils, pastels, as well as ink and pencil. I have always loved the beauty and peacefulness of nature, especially flowers and birds, and began experiments in Sumi-e, using Sumi ink and Chinese watercolor on rice paper. This style takes me back to my growing up in Japan, bringing together my love of nature.
