■From the author (excerpt from this book) Thank you for picking up "Bouquet of Passing Days." my collection of works. For me, it’s hard enough to paint the picture in front of me, and it's uncanny to think that before I knew it, I'd been drawing enough pictures to put together a book like this. I'm able to keep drawing, it is thanks to all of you who appreciate my art and support me. Thank you so much. I'd be very happy if those of you who are looking at my art for the first time would find a picture that catches their eye. I compiled different pictures into this book with the same spirit one collects each flower individually to make a bouquet. I hope you will enjoy this book in your own way, whether it's gazing closely at each picture or flipping through the whole book.
