Wonderlands

When I was a child, I used to get into my parents' book shelves, and opened up very thick heavy books that were about museums and the exhibitions. I grew up in a small town in Japan. I never had a chance to actually visit any of the museums at that time, but I remember I used to be lost myself in the pictures of those paintings. I still vividly remember some of the paintings although I forgot a lot of artists' names... (Shame on me!)

My favorite places to get lost were Salvador Dali's paintings, especially "Melting Clocks". I lost myself in it for hours like Alice in the wonderland. It was like looking into the window and sucked into the other side of the window before you know it. I still love to see other artists' paintings and get lost in them. Now I can also create my own little wonderlands and hopefullhy many people will enjoy being lost in them.

The importance of your paintings?

I am energy. We all are. My thoughts create feelings/emotions, which create vibrations. These vibrations transfer into my art. I feel that this is something I need to do to release it through my art. When other people see my art their vibrations (perhaps frequency) match or harmonize to the vibrations released from my art. That would take the vibrations to another level and even create different vibrations. That is the beauty of the art.

Some may see the art in me and some may not. It doesn’t matter how other people perceive. I just hope my art vibrates all individuals in a good way.

Creative Energy

I think artists are spiritual. I don't mean they have the characteristic of morality. (Some may have...) But I mean more like psychic power that connects to the creative energy source.

I think there is no "bad" art. You can be better at it, but not bad. Once you find the connection to the creative energy source, you'll just expand. You'll see clearer and feel stronger. It doesn't matter if you are painter, poet, photographer or crafter. The creative energy comes from the same source.

Contrast

He became more dependent while I became more independent
He’s been suckling my breasts and watching me cry
As he got weaker I got stronger
The contrast between two
The lines are always parallel
