Artist Note
When I'm alone, a lot of questions come to a head.
Questions about life...
And then the compulsion comes.
The compulsion repeats itself over and over again.
I've been to the hospital and tried different things.
I've been to the doctor, I've tried different things, but when the questions come to my head, the compulsion takes over.
I have loved to draw since I was born.
I was especially happy when I was drawing the backgrounds of my paintings.
When I was younger, I couldn't buy screen tones, so I drew my own lines.
Even now, I always draw those lines in the background of my drawings.
Oh, and when I'm trying to solve a problem, I draw a line over and over again.
Only draw your favorite backgrounds.
Draw a line and think about a question.
Why.........Ah, the line is beautifully drawn.
For a moment, your mind goes blank and joy comes over you.
But then the question comes back and makes you draw again.
I draw again.
Two lines.
The third line is beautifully drawn.
And then joy comes.
There are no unconscious lines in my work.
They are a collection of my doubts and joys.
I stared at the drawing until I fell asleep.
I start to see the landscape of the past in the lines...
When I close my eyes, there are only the remnants of the past.
