In Japan there are many milestones in a young girls life, for example, there is a national holiday named Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3), on this day all five year old boys and all three and seven year old girls will be dressed in traditional garb to pray at the local shrine or temple and receive blessings to ensure these children will blossom into healthy, successful young adults. 

If you look closely you’ll see that this particular sheet of washi (Japanese paper) is made with two different colors of Koozo fibers, I bought this paper in a tiny store in Mino, a little town in Gifu that is known worldwide for their high quality washi. Part of this has to do with the particularly high quality of the water in the river that flows through the town. The Koozo plants are placed in the river for weeks to soften and bleach them before they get processed. 

This mixed media painting on authentic, handmade Japanese Washi paper from Mino, it is created using a combination of image transfer and acrylic paints and mediums. The artwork is shipped unframed, rolled in a tube, it is signed on the front and has title, date, artist name on the back. It comes with a signed certificate of authenticity from the artist

Leaving the Netherlands was a breeze. Japan didn’t scare me, America didn’t intimidate and Canada is as easy-going as it gets. The thing that frightens me, is creating Art. For the longest time, I believed I was the master of my craft. I strode into my studio with confidence to create bodies of work like Traveling the World and World on Washi. In my bubble, I reigned supreme. Then, one day I realized that the spaces I thought I controlled were fortified by the perceived expectations of the people around me. Their silent influence spawned countless rules, suffocating the artist within. It dawned on me—I shouldn't be making the rules at all. I have been creating Art for a decade and a half, and right now my studio in Canada is the most terrifying and exhilarating place to be. Inside, the Art decides the destination, where it leads I will follow. An old man once told me: “It’s dangerous to go alone!” So, will you join me on this quest? Together we will explore ‘Unveiling’ a boundless realm of vibrant hues and delicate textures. Step into my world, explore my art and meet the versions of myself I once knew. Let's embark on an adventure of discovery.
