I have been an artist for my whole life. I remember when I was little drawing with crayons on walls. My parents were not happy about it, but they always encouraged me to keep creating. They say that's why I'm here today, because of them and their love. Now I am a professional artist, working on my own style which is called Ultrastylized Realism. It's all about making the ordinary, extraordinary. Sometimes people don't understand it, but when they do, oh man, it changes everything for them too.

Growing up in Kyoto was like living inside an art book. The temples and gardens were right outside my window and I would draw them every day. My friends say that I have a special eye for beauty and I guess you could say that's true. I can see the beauty in all things, even if they're not considered beautiful by others.

When people ask me about inspiration, I tell them it's simple: the world around us is full of it. Nature, art, music... every single thing we do has its own unique style and character. It's our job as artists to find those qualities in things and reveal them to the world. That's what makes this work worth doing for me.
