Hello, nice to meet you!
I love writing and Painting more than anything else. Since I was a little girl, I have always loved them. My dream as a junior high school student was to publish my writings and Painting in a book and deliver them to people who need them.
After graduating from Tama Art University in 1998, I continued writing and Painting.
In 2012, I published a picture book, "
Anherica No Sentaku(Angelica's Choice​)".

This picture book is distributed in 150 libraries in Japan. I have also published two poetry books.

 Book with poems and drawings
"A Crown of White Clover for You"

In 2022, I published a picture book, "Shinarai Sekai (Unknown World)". This is a little story about the sacred beasts. I published this picture book as an e-book because I wanted people all over the world could read it.
Then, I published a picture book, "Lao kara Todokemono (Delivery from Lao)".

It took me about two years to complete this picture book. I hope many of you will take a look at it.

Most of my works are hand drawn. Recently, some are combined with digital.

There are wide range of variations in my works, from colorful ones to black-and-white, sketch-like ones.
This is because I change my style according to the theme that I want to communicate.


My imagination has no limits.
It is a great pleasure for me to be able to share my works with you all.
I swear that I will continue my creative activities in a happy spirit!
