I
am a Japanese Canadian who has been drawing and painting for as
long as I can remember. My passion for watercolours
led me to embrace art as a full time profession and I have been
selling paintings through galleries since the late 1980's.
When my children were young I wrote and illustrated several small
handsized books to entice them to read. Though
none were ever published, I was soon approached by Tutkam Books
to illustrate "The Changeling"
by Mary Withers, which is on the Edmonton Public Library's recommended
reading list for young readers.
My
paintings can be found in private and corporate collections across
North America and the UK
I
have been President of the Federation of Canadian Artists (Edmonton
Branch). I am a Senior signature member of the Society of Western
Canadian Artists. I paint and exhibit with the Artists
Borealis and Brush With Sunlight (in
partnership with Frank Haddock). I have had
several articles published on art and painting techniques in several
art periodicals. Over the years I have taught/still teaching watercolour
and/or oils at the Unviversity of Alberta (Extension Dept ELLA),
MacEwan Community College, City Arts Centre and privately etc. due
to the many requests.
