Artist Introduction

 

Landscape painter based in Kobe.
His works through which you can feel the sunlight and brisk breeze
in Europe are reminiscent of impressionist art created in the era of
Monet and Sisley.

He painted peaceful countryside, waterfront scenes with dazzling
sunlight and ordinary streetscape with lived-in feel as well as
historical sites in France, Italy, Belgium and other European countries
in a poetic manner.
