Till 2014, I had been working as a office clerk in a Japanese Human Resource Development organization while being active as a professional cartoonist and illustrator. In 2014, I decided to quit the job and concentrate on making fine art. I had been a self taught artist till then. I decided to go through an academic education and studied in an MFA course at a university in the United Kingdom. After returning to Japan, I settled in Kobe and have been active as a visual artist doing exhibitions at a gallery in this area of Kobe and in Tokyo.
