As you already know my family is everything to me. I get the most inspiration from them. Today I would like to share a few drawings I made all through the years.
This is a drawing of my little boy when he was about 1 years old. We had decided to take him of a trip to Mitsumine-guchi, the last stop on the Chichibu line. This picturesque station has a lot to offer because it is in the heart of the Oku-Chichibu Park. You can meet a group of monkeys there, have some tofu ice cream, and see an amazing outdoor museum of trains. This train ride was special because we took a steam locomotive that ran once a day. It was my son's first ever ride as well. I will never forget his little eyes full of surprise and fear when the world outside the window began to move! You can see it in this video.

This drawing of my husband is back from the times when we live at "Melrose Place" in Kamikawa, Saitama-ken. Artistically speaking it was a very productive period of my live. I had many notebooks with my poetry, sketchbooks and paintings. We also had a lot of time to drive around Japan just for me to stop and sketch or paint.
This was a sketch for a painting which is still somewhere in a distant future. After finishing this drawing i looked at us and realised how we have changed, grew older. Our faces look so mature and serious even though we smile. Time is a very ruthless and non-negotiable thing. We should have the most respect for it, right beside love, water and fire!
