This post is her and my collaboration.

I thank friends around the world that is interested in Japan, Japanese culture.




"禅 ZEN"　　 It may be a long journey of the Self-Awareness.
The calligraphy did a trip from the Far East to the far-off Europe.

The line. 　The shape. 　The placement...
The character expresses are myself, and ultimate technical expression.

The part of my soul will lie there eternally.
It is joy to become the part of the beautiful scene...

I look forward to meeting wonderful "The man" for next one year. . .

Thanks for your appreciation

I heartily thank all of you for appreciation of my calligraphy.


I was born in Taiwan during World War II, and was brought up. My parents are Japanese. I came to the Far East since war was over.
I took the license of national language and calligraphy at national university.
It was a teacher for many years. I have not exhibited a work at exhibition.

There is little way left by me. Therefore I wanted to have people except my country watch my works.

I have not watched any blog till then, and my foreign language was poor.
But, I was supported by a lot of encouragement and suggestions of many friends. I was very glad.


The friend who showed a lot of interest in my calligraphy particularly for a long time, is my honor.
Thank you again.
