深い森の中、鮮やかに浮かび上がる赤い実。
「見つけた、見つけた」と呟き、鳥は赤い実をついばむ。
その実が喉を通り、お腹の奥にころんと届くころ、心はいつのまにか実の色に染まっている。ポワポワとあたたかな魔法。
体の中の小さな灯りを頼りに、食いしん坊な小鳥の旅は続いていく。

When I immerse myself in nature and face plants, birds, or even inanimate objects, it is not merely their physical form that I wish to capture. It is the overwhelming vitality, the passion, and the invisible, wave-like presence—the "vibration"—that overflows from within them. Driven by this force, my brush begins to move.
In my drawings, I aim to seize the momentum of a single moment. In my ink and scratch works, I carefully layer colors to gather the essence, the presence, and the charming, quirky expressions of my subjects. Though my techniques vary, the root remains the same: a pure desire to give shape to these beautiful existences.
I hope my work becomes a presence that makes you want to say "Good morning" each day—like a dear friend whose mere company brings a sense of peace. With the wish that they blend into your daily life and gently raise the "temperature" of the atmosphere, I breathe life into every single piece I create.

そらと、はなと。
ひみつの花園では、二羽の鳥が楽しげに弧をえがいておりました。
春を祝うようなそのはばたきは、鼻先をかすめる、あたたかな光の匂い。
なにかがはじまり、あたらしい扉がひらく。
せかいは期待にみちて、そわそわと、静かに震えているのでした。
