Japanese painting

By the time I entered junior high school, I wanted to go to an art university to study Japanese painting. I wanted to be able to draw that delicate and beautiful way.

"It would be wonderful if I could learn Japanese painting while living in Kyoto, which is full of traditional culture. Antiques, temples, shrines, townhouses and alleys. How wonderful it would be if I could learn in an environment surrounded by Japanese."

I was thinking of going to my hometown, Tokyo, but gradually I began to think about going to Kyoto. My parents strongly opposed my decision to go to Kyoto. A boycott of protest was carried out for several days. My parents broke up and I went to Kyoto. Immediately after entering university, I was free to draw what I wanted to draw. I often referred to Mucha's design style.
