Mr. Bouguereau is my art hero.  I can learn so much by copying old master’s works.  It’s so hard, but worth it.  It amazes me how he could paint children’s pure facial expressions so accurately &beautifully. The wing on her shoulder is not on his work, it just happened spontaneously during the process.  
Thank you for viewing.
Have a great day!

Going Home

“Going Home”
Oil on linen
22.7x15.8cm
Available for purchase on Daily Paintworks 







I painted this piece from a photo I took from the airplane on the way back to where I live, Tokyo.
I wasn’t born and raised in Tokyo, but living in this city became the longest place in my entire life.  
Although I don’t paint landscapes so much, I really had an urge to paint this scene.  I was so excited and couldn’t wait to paint on my way home.  Maybe that’s my home.

Thank you for viewing.
Have a great day!
