Paintings of mother and baby
In 2012 my daughter Annie was born. And every day I would see these wonderful scenes of mother and baby together. So I did a lot of sketches and sometimes even a few paintings. Here are two of the paintings and a sketch.
2012
Watercolor painting of a woman sitting in a chair
For a long time I haven’t drawn or painted my family. But in the past I would often draw them. And occasionally I would paint them.
Painting of a steep flight of steps going up to a Japanese shrine
This place is in or near Wasada. Wasada is a region on the outskirts of Oita city. In this region, the urban landscape starts to disappear and farmhouses and fields begin to appear. I found this place by chance during a cycling adventure.
Watercolor painting of a woman sitting and writing in a cafe
Sadly, I have no idea when I painted this picture. I’m guessing that it was 2012. But it’s just a guess. And I have no idea where this place is. Neither do I know who the figure is in the painting.
