Born in Japan, I became a Canadian resident in 1971 and started pottery in 1983.I have a passion for creating ‘functional art’, particularly tea pots, vases and dishes. I also like to make utensils for Japanese Tea Ceremony as I have been studying the Way of Tea for a long time.
A customer favorite, the pattern of tiny wildflowers is my signature design, inspired by the beauty and liveliness of my spring garden.
Drawn by its mystical appearance, I have been focusing on using crystalline glazes to create pieces in recent years. This tall lidded jar is one of my favorites, loved for its beautiful pattern and stillness.
Great Blog, and great artist!!!
