Let them go and then you feel free.






Just let them go, then you feel free.

Missing mountains

I miss mountains and water...



Mandurah Trees

This is a story with Mandurah Trees.


They talked to me while I was driving.

( Everything is connected. And we are one. )


They said something very deep, but I can't express as words.

So keep it as a sketch.


Syngonium

This is a Story with Syngonium.







( Now it is time to use color don't you think?? )





Cactus

This is a story with Cactus.

He said to me

( I am always feeling you, I know you like quietness but sometime you are disturbed by things around you.

 Well then look inside of things not only what you can see..., core of things. Then you feel more balanced

 and more see the world clearly.)








Sky in Mandurah

I saw big eyes looking at me through the gap of cloud one day.

Dancing Trees

I'm updating my recent sketch.

I got a image when I went to Dwellingup for my son to show the trains. (There is a Retoro Train at there.)
We went to really deep forrest by one of their train, and see beautiful view there.
Still picture is in my mind but not capturing as drawing yet...

Living rocks

I went to Yalgorup National Park last Sunday.
That was awesome place where we can see Thrombolites, those are called as 'living rocks'.


See detail about Thrombolites here.
You will amaze how we are living in miracle.

Ants and Flowers

Native Flower

How beautiful, Australian Native Flower.


Bazaar at Fremantle Arts Centre

I went to Bazaar at Fremantle Arts Centre at last Saturday.
I enjoyed feeling live atmosphere at the Bazaar as well as seeing some art work in the Arts Centre.

























I was stimulated by the printing works in the gallery,  something moved inside of me.
Wish soon I will have store at there!

Recent my favorite place

Sometime I go to the sea with my son, Amin.
Just sit on the shore, watch the wave come and go.

How beautiful collection of blue..
Wish to paint such a color in someday.

Business Card Design

Getting warmer these days, summer is coming soon!!!

I definitely try marine sport this year, probably I would go for body board.

Last year I have just started snorkeling, I saw under the sea first time.

That was amazing experience, totally different world.







I designed business card for my friend who I've known since Tasmania.

She is having new business as Landscape designer specified Japanese Gardening.

I had a great day at Ulala cafe and Gallery.














































t was first time to express my original art work.
Chances are coming always right time and right way,
